Egypt’s National and Water Security Tied to African Relations, Says Yasser Othman

Ambassador Yasser Othman, a former assistant foreign minister, said Egypt’s national and water security are closely linked to its African ties.

Othman highlighted Egypt’s success in hosting three important African summits and events simultaneously in the city of Alamein.

His remarks placed the gatherings within the broader context of Egypt’s relationship with Africa, underscoring the continent’s significance to the country’s security interests.

By linking both national and water security to Egypt’s African connections, Othman framed engagement with the continent as a strategic priority for Cairo.
