According to el-Sisi's office, Egyptian and Cypriot presidents first held a bilateral meeting, followed by talks between the two countries' delegations. Al-Sisi and Christodoulides agreed to establish a joint business council, the office said.
"Our meeting today was also a good opportunity to reaffirm our appreciation of the trilateral cooperation between Egypt, Cyprus and Greece. The trilateral cooperation mechanism between the countries is an example to be followed at all levels. We agreed on the importance of good preparations for the next trilateral cooperation mechanism summit, which Egypt is pleased to host this year," el-Sisi told a joint press conference with Christodoulides.

After the talks, Christodoulides said that Cyprus views relations with Egypt as a strategic partnership and intends to strengthen cooperation.
