Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry on Thursday lauded cooperation relations binding Egypt and Portugal in various fields including economic and trade spheres.

The remarks were made by Shoukry in the inauguration of the second forum of the Egyptian-Portuguese business council in Cairo in the presence of visiting Portuguese Minister of Foreign Affairs Augusto Santos Silva.

He pointed out that the visit made by President Abdel Fattah El Sisi to Portugal in November contributed to boosting relations between the two countries in various fields, especially in the economic and commercial ones.

He expounded that improving the legislative structure related to promoting trade, investment, and growth is an essential factor contributing to fostering relations between Egypt and Portugal.

He noted that Egypt's economic reform strategy resulted in achieving positive economic growth that reached 4.5 percentage.

Within the framework of encouraging investment, he affirmed that the Egyptian government carried out a number of legislative amendments to facilitate investment procedures and guarantees. 

The foreign minister called on Portuguese companies and people to invest in Egypt in its various fields of production and services.
