President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi received his Tunisian counterpart Beji Caid Essebsi at the Ettehadiya Presidential Palace on Sunday.
Essebsi’s diplomatic adviser, Khamis al-Gihinawy, told Tunisian newspaper Alchorouk that the two leaders discussed a range of regional issues, including the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, as well as the civil wars in Syria, Yemen and Libya.
Gihinawy said this is Essebsi’s first official presidential visit to Egypt since his election in December 2014, adding that the Tunisian President will be the guest of honor during Egypt’s celebrations commemorating the 1973 Arab-Israeli war.
