President Volodymyr Zelenskyy: “I spoke with President of Egypt Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. The President informed me that Egypt will no longer accept grain exported by Russia from our temporarily occupied territories and is, at the same time, interested in increasing imports of grain from Ukraine.
“I am grateful for this decision. Egypt is also ready to contribute to achieving a dignified peace. We agreed that our foreign ministers will remain in contact.
“We discussed the situation in the Middle East and the Gulf, as well as its impact on the global oil market.
“I updated the President on our meetings and agreements with countries in the region. Ukraine has significant potential for military-technical cooperation, and we are ready to work in this direction with Egypt as well. We also went over other areas for developing bilateral cooperation between our countries. We will continue working on this.”
