not very extraordinary to be discussed

 

[Kompromat]

He shouldn't come at this point when there is no government in place. I want Pakistan to have close ties with Egypt as Husni Mubarik wasn't very friendly to Pakistan. We will welcome him with both arms,however it is the wrong timing. He should wait until we have a new govt.

 

[Kaniska]

How does Pakistan and Egypt relation is based on? Is is based on Trade or Islamic nation kind of brotherhood culture?
What is the prospective trade future between the 2 nations?

 

[UmarJustice]

Can we have some sort of impact with better relations with Egypt?

I don't think he is coming for any military or economic cooperation.

 

[Edevelop]

Great. We need to take relations with North African countries to another level.

 

[A.Rafay]

We should seek good relations with Egyptians! Egypt is a brotherly country, relations between the two will benefit us alot! good economic and trade ties as well as defence ties should be mutually beneficial!
But he will be visiting the interim govt!! he should come after elections!

Not sure if Egypt has the money, their country is in a huge mess. Though it would be a good sale.

Hopefully negotiation will continue. The Egyptians have shown interest.. After the regime change talks were put on hold.

AFAIK they wanted full ToT, though post revolution finances may be an issue as well yes.
