New Delhi, Sep 17

At present, bilateral trade between India and Egypt stands at around $5 billion, but both nations are working together with the goal of raising it to $12 billion, Egypt’s Ambassador to India, Kamel Zayed Kamel Galal, said on Wednesday.

“This expansion will not only ease economic pressures but also inject new momentum into both economies,” Galal added.

Extending his best wishes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his 75th birthday, Galal described him as one of the truly outstanding leaders of the present time.

“India has always been a credible and respected voice in international affairs. Today, it stands as a vital global and regional player,” the ambassador said.

He further stressed that even though global challenges persist, they also bring opportunities that can be turned into pathways for stability and prosperity.

By working together, Galal said, India and Egypt can boost economic growth, empower people, and build a stronger, more prosperous future.
