Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Ihor Zhovkva, and Special Advisor to the President of Egypt on National Security, Faiza Abou el-Naga, have convened to discuss the development of a Ukrainian agro-industrial hub in Egypt. This initiative is part of broader efforts to fulfill the agreements established between the leaders of both countries, targeting enhanced agricultural cooperation and economic integration.
The proposed agrohub aims to leverage Ukraine’s agricultural expertise and Egypt’s strategic location in the Middle East to create a regional center for food production and export. Both nations have emphasized the importance of strengthening bilateral ties through economic collaboration, particularly in the wake of global supply chain disruptions and increasing demand for food security.
The meeting underscores the growing interest in fostering cross-border partnerships to address challenges in agriculture and trade. By establishing a Ukrainian agro-industrial hub in Egypt, the initiative seeks to enhance mutual economic interests and contribute to the development of sustainable agricultural practices in the region.
