NEW DELHI, JUNE 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 2-day visit to Egypt has been hailed by analysts as a potential “game changer” for bilateral ties, according to Al Jazeera. It is PM Modi’s first visit to Egypt as Prime Minister and the first by any Indian Prime Minister since 1997. Currently, China’s bilateral trade with Egypt stands at USD 15 billion, double that of India’s USD 7.26 billion in 2021-22. The latest bilateral trade reached USD 5.18 billion from April 22 to January 23. After taking over the G20 presidency in December 2022, India has invited Egypt to participate as a “guest country”.
