Cairo - MENA
Minister of Tourism Hisham Zaazou met on Tuesday
with Polish and Saudi ambassadors here, Piotr Puchta and Ahmed al-Qattan,
respectively, to review how to foster Egypt\'s cooperation with Poland and
Saudi Arabia.
Zaazou discussed with Puchta means to promote bilateral relations in
the tourism field.
In statements after the meeting, the minister said the present
situation in Egypt took place in all world countries during their
transition to democracy.
He said his ministry seeks to increase the number of tourists coming
from Poland, as a promising market to Egypt.
Puchta, on his part, said Polish tourists appreciate the right to
peaceful protest, which, he added, encourages Poland to raise its flights
to Egypt.
During their get-together, Zaazou and Qattan discussed ways of boosting
joint cooperation, with firm eye to the Hajj and Umrah seasons.
The Egyptian official underlined the depth and strength of relations
between Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
Qattan, in turn, promised to maximize advantages offered to Egyptians
in the kingdom and curb any manipulation of entry visas.
