Both states want to send ambassadors to the other country again, the Egyptian presidency announced late Monday evening. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi agreed with Erdogan when he congratulated him on his election victory.
Relations between Cairo and Ankara have been tense for years. The political dispute escalated in 2013 after the Turkish government repeatedly described the military’s ouster of then-Islamist Egyptian president Mohammed Morsi as an illegitimate “military coup”. Ambassadors from both countries were withdrawn in 2013.
Eventually, however, the nations drew closer again. Egyptian Foreign Minister Samih Shukri visited Turkey after the devastating earthquakes in February. His Turkish counterpart Mevlut Cavusoglu visited Cairo in March. Cavusoglu said at the time that a meeting between Erdogan and al-Sisi was also planned. (sda/dpa)
