The President of the Republic of Croatia Zoran MIlanovi\u0107 and his wife Sanja Musi\u0107 Milanovi\u0107 are paying an Official visit to the Arab Republic of Egypt at the invitation of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. Following the official welcoming ceremony in front of the Al-Ittihadiya Palace in Cairo, a t\u00eate-\u00e0-t\u00eate was held between the two Presidents as well as a bilateral meeting of the delegations of the Republic of Croatia and the Arab Republiy of Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his statement after the meeting President Milanovi\u0107 highlighted tourism, the defence industry and investments in Croatia as possible areas of cooperation between Croatia and Egypt. \u201cTourism is a sector in which Croatia, thanks to a set of circumstances, natural assets, great efforts, energy and capital, attained an enviable global level therefore we can objectively be considered a tourism giant. We have the experience that we and our experts are ready and willing to share with others. To see in what directions development is heading, where the state can make good money and where people can have good paying and quality jobs yet not be engulfed in the massive numbers of tourists and everything that goes with large numbers of people who find themselves in a short time in a limited space. These are important issues for the quality of life and environmental conservation\u201d, President Milanovi\u0107 noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the President mentioned the defence industry and stated that Croatia has certain knowledge and products that are the result of Croatian brainpower and are competitive on the global market. \u201cHere we quickly found a common language and I will do everything on my part to deepen this cooperation and where it doesn\u2019t exist, to start it\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Milanovi\u0107 also mentioned Croatia\u2019s geographic position saying that Croatia is a member of NATO and the European Union, but that it is also literally, legally and figuratively speaking an open southern port of the European Union. \u201cOne of the larger ports. Here I refer first of all to Rijeka and Plo\u010de \u2013 an entry for goods, products and investments on the territory of the European Union. This is a position where Croatia is and should use more to its advantage and for the welfare of those who wish to invest. Egypt is more than welcome\u201d, President Milanovi\u0107 noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEgyptian challenges are huge, this is a vast country that more than ten years ago experienced something we in Europe naively, excitedly and joyfully at first called the \u2018Arab Spring\u2019. It had nothing whatsoever to do with the spring except that it occurred during that season, and the aftermath was a heavy death toll, destruction of poverty and missed opportunities for several Middle East states that were nearly destroyed. Egypt managed to resist. It is important for such a large state to be stable both for the Mediterranean and the entire world, I would say. I\u2019m not here to make an assessment but to try to pave the way for cooperation and better understanding for mutual, financial benefit\u201d, President Milanovi\u0107 said in concluding his statement. President Milanovi\u0107 invited the President of the Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to pay an Official visit to Croatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egyptian President el-Sisi congratulated the Republic of Croatia on entering the Schengen Area and the euro area assessing it as the pinnacle of its success in the sense of integration in European Union institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, he expressed gratitude to Croatia and its political stance in as he noted \u201ckey issues for Egypt\u201d. \u201cDuring our talks we stressed the importance of commitment to the promotion of economic cooperation and increasing trade between the two countries that at present do not correspond to the level of political relations between the two sides. Especially after Croatia become one of the more important, southern gateways to the European Union, which can contribute to increase trade and energy security in South and Central Europe\u201d, the Egyptian President stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egyptian President el-Sisi stated that he discussed with President Milanovi\u0107 Egypt\u2019s progress in the area of energy production, which includes new gas deposits in the eastern Mediterranean and improvement of renewable energy sources such as the Benban Solar Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe discussed cooperation between the two countries in the energy sector and encouraging Croatian companies to work and invest in Egypt in that sector. The Croatian side was invited to invest in our industry because it will be a gateway to the Arab market\u201d, the President of the Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
