El Sisi meets Canadian FM, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi

The final days of last week were busy for President Abdel Fattah El Sisi on the diplomatic front. El Sisi met Wednesday with Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan for wide-ranging talks on regional, economic and security cooperation. Also on Wednesday, El Sisi met with Canadian Foreign Minister Stéphane Dion to discuss strengthening bilateral ties and the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. El Sisi met Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas yesterday, where the two “exchanged views on recent international efforts to resolve the Palestinian issue, mainly French efforts and the conference of the international support group that will take place in Paris on June 3,” Ittihadiya said.

Closer to home: El Sisi urged senior staff to get out of low gear on the Grand Egyptian Museum in a meeting on Thursday with former PM Ibrahim Mahlab (now the president’s point man on mega-projects) and Armed Forces Engineering Corps boss Gen. Kamel El-Wazir.
