During the meetings, Minister Al Wazir will present Egypt’s
key qualifications for council membership, highlighting its prominent role as a
leading maritime nation. He will also review Egypt’s ambitious strategy over
recent years to develop and modernize its ports and establish new ones, which
play a pivotal role in supporting regional and international trade,
particularly through the Suez Canal, one of the world’s most important maritime
routes.
The minister is scheduled to meet with transport ministers
from friendly and allied countries, as well as CEOs of major international
companies operating in the transport and industry sectors, and representatives
from chambers of commerce. Discussions will focus on joint cooperation and
exploring investment opportunities in both sectors, given Egypt’s promising
investment climate.
