Serbia and Egypt signed a new agreement on air traffic cooperation, a bilateral agreement that defines commercial relations between air transporters, selection of airline companies, their nomination, security area, harmonization with world standards, and other issues. The document was signed by Serbian Infrastructure Minister Milutin Mrkonjić and visiting Egyptian Minister for International Cooperation Fayza Aboul Naga. The agreement was signed as part of a two-day meeting of the Serbian-Egyptian committee held in Belgrade on Friday after 23 years of break, and aimed at promotion of the Serbia-Egypt economic cooperation. Aboul Naga said that the cooperation between Serbia and Egypt has great potential in the domain of civil engineering, adding that the Serbian construction companies can take part in the infrastructure projects in Egypt and the entire African continent. Mrkonjić underlined that the cooperation between Serbian and Egyptian engineers should be much better, adding that he would visit Egypt “very soon”. -B92
