The Egyptian Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Mohamed Shaker, met with Cypriot Ambassador to Egypt and President of Cyprus’ Euro Africa International Company, in order to boost cooperation between the two countries and to consolidate Egypt’s role as a regional energy hub in the Eastern Mediterranean Region.
