Saudi deputy crown prince leaves Cairo

Saudi Deputy Crown Prince, Deputy Premier and Defense Minister Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud left Thursday Cairo after a several-hour visit.

During the visit, the Saudi prince met President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and took part in the graduation ceremony of new batches of the military academy and institutes along with a high-level delegation from the Saudi royal court.

Sisi hailed on the participation of Prince Mohammed in the graduation ceremony of military cadets.

In a speech at the graduation ceremony, Sisi said this gesture comes in continuation of Saudi Arabia's long-term supportive stances toward Egypt and its people.

This participation reflects the strong will of both countries to boost bilateral relations in all fields, he added.

Egypt and Saudi Arabia are the two arms of Arab national security as the two countries will always stand together against the challenges and threats in the Arab region, Sisi said.
