Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry returned to Cairo on Saturday night after a five-day visit to Addis Ababa during which he participated in the African Summit.
President Abdel Fattah El Sisi had assigned Shoukry to head the Egyptian delegation after the president cut short his visit in order to return home to follow up the latest developments after Thursday night's Sinai terror attacks.
Shoukry also met with a number of African foreign ministers to discuss number of African issues and ways to boost bilateral relations.
