President of Egypt Abdel Fattah El-Sisi said:
- Honorable Mr. President, first of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you for the warm welcome and hospitality I have enjoyed since yesterday. At the same time, I would like to express my condolences regarding the attack on the Azerbaijani embassy yesterday.
Mr. President, the mutual understanding that manifests itself in all fields during our meeting, the presence of the political will of both sides in the direction of the development of cooperation in political, economic and other fields gives me confidence in saying that these relations will further strengthen. At the same time, I am honored to convey our congratulations to you on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the late President and National Leader of the Azerbaijani people, Heydar Aliyev, who was a close friend of the Egyptian people.
Of course, good results were also achieved in the meeting of the Azerbaijan-Egypt Intergovernmental Joint Commission held last year. But I think that the development of relations between our countries in all fields will deepen further after this visit too - in the conditions of mutual understanding, on the basis of mutual interests and political will.
Mr. President, we have also agreed that facilitating measures should be taken in our countries for both Azerbaijani and Egyptian investors.

As you mentioned, after the list of all the medicines Azerbaijan needs is developed and presented to us, we will do our work in this direction.
