Beijing: Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi will pay a
state visit to China from Aug 28 to 30 at the invitation of
Chinese President Hu Jintao, said Foreign Ministry spokesperson
Hong Lei Wednesday.
This visit will be Morsi's first visit to China since taking
office. China attaches great importance to the visit, Xinhua
quoted Hong as saying.
The spokesperson noted that the Chinese leaders will hold talks
and meetings with the Egyptian president to exchange views on
bilateral ties, international and regional issues of common
concern.
The two sides will sign a series of cooperation documents during
Morsi's visit, Hong said, adding that he believes that the visit
will further promote the development of bilateral friendly
cooperative relations under the new situation.
Egypt was the first Arab country and the first African country to
establish diplomatic relations with China, the spokesman said,
stressing that bilateral ties have seen long-term healthy and
stable development ever since.
