Kerry in Cairo for talks with Egypt's Sisi

Xinhua, May 18, 2016 Adjust font size:

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry arrived in Cairo Wednesday to meet with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi in his short trip, state-run MENA news agency reported.

It's Kerry's second visit to Egypt in less than a month. He will discuss with Sisi a range of bilateral and regional issues, according to MENA.

Kerry arrived in Cairo after participating in a ministerial meeting of the International Syria Support Group in Vienna.

Earlier this week, Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry held a long meeting with Kerry in New York to discuss a number of regional issues, including the crises in Syria, Libya as well as preparations for upcoming Israel-Palestine peace conference in France. Endit
