MOGADISHU (Halbeeg News) – Somali Prime Minister Hamze Abdi Barre has today travel to Cairo to hold talks with Egyptian authorities.
In a brief statement, the PM Barre said that he will discuss with the Egyptian leaders the strengthening of deep relations and cooperation between the two countries.
The PM was accompanied by several of his cabinet members including the country’s education minister, Farah Sheikh Abdikadir.
The trip of the PM comes barely three months after Egypt dispatched two military planes carrying aid to Somalia following an order by President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
According to the Egyptian presidency, the aid package was meant to “help ease the burden on the brotherly Somali people.”
Alongside the aid package, the Egyptian military also sent two medical teams to secure the medical evacuation of Somalia army personnel injured in terrorist attacks.
The evacuated troops will receive treatment at the Egyptian Armed Forces hospitals.
