CAIRO, Nov 26 (MENA) - Egypt has signed the "Yaoundé Declaration" during the 10th Anniversary Meeting of the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes in Paris, the Ministry of Finance announced on Tuesday.

The move puts the country in a list of some African countries including, Cameron, Uganda, Ghana, Congo, South Africa, Morocco and Tunisia, the ministry said on its official Facebook page.
