Al-Sisi visits Saudi Arabia to offer condolences for King Abdullah's death
Ahmed Mamdouh Published in Albawaba on 23 - 01 - 2015

Egypt's Ambassador in Riyadh, Afifi Abdul Wahab announced Friday that President, Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi will visit Saudi Arabia on Saturday to meet with the new Saudi Arabia ruler, King Salman bin Abdulaziz to offer condolences for King Abdullah's death.
Abdul Wahab added that President Al-Sisi was keen to attend the funeral prayer of King Abdullah on Friday, but the distance between Switzerland, where he was attending the World Economic Forum in Davos, as well as the bad climate conditions prevented him from attending it.
King Abdullah was born on August 1924, becoming the King of Saudi Arabia and Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques since August 2005.
He has been one of the largest supporters of Egypt following the ouster of former President Mohamed Morsi.
