Russia.
Sisi commended
China's participation in many major economic projects in Egypt, especially in

the noticeable progress and positive milestones in the Egyptian-Chinese
relations since the establishment of the comprehensive strategic partnership
between both countries in 2014.

their commitment to build on the momentum generated by Sisi’s state visit to
China in May 2024.
Sisi and Xi also
discussed the overall bilateral relations and ways to enhance them across
various fields, as well as means to strengthen coordination between the two
