President Al-Sisi will also meet with Chinese business leaders to attract investment in Egypt and promote technology transfer. The visit will conclude with his participation in a ministerial meeting of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum on May 30th.

The growing relations between Egypt and China have led to increased economic, trade, military and cultural ties.

In 2014, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi signed a comprehensive strategic partnership agreement with Chinese President Xi Jinping, which has led to significant Chinese investment in Egyptian infrastructure projects.

These include the construction of a new administrative capital, power plants and industrial zones. The two countries have also concluded several agreements to promote trade and economic co-operation in energy, agriculture and manufacturing.
