CAIRO – 1 July 2021: Speaker of the Arab Parliament Adel Abdel Rahman al-Asoumy greeted Thursday President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi on the eighth anniversary of the June 30 Revolution.

Asoumy noted that the June 30 Revolution reflected "the strength of the Egyptian state and the willpower of the Egyptian people" in the face of challenges. "It also kicked off a new era where comprehensive development [is carried out] in all fields," the Arab parliamentarian said.  

The Speaker of the Arab Parliament commended the tremendous efforts deployed by President Sisi over the past eight years, particularly in terms of unprecedented urbanization, upgrade of the infrastructure, launch of national mega projects, and outstanding economic performance in spite of the acute economic crisis the world has been living through for two years.
