H.E. Khaled Ali Moustafa El-Bakly, Ambassador of the Arab Republic of Egypt interacted with members of the strategic community at the VIF on April 02, 2014. The Ambassador spoke on the current situation and the upcoming elections in Egypt. He elaborated on the challenges posed by radical extremists of the Muslim Brotherhood and how the state is coping with them. The spiral of violence in Egypt has given a fresh impetus to Al Qaeda linked terror groups particularly in the Sinai, which could have far wider regional ramifications if left unchecked. The Ambassador also offered his perspectives on various aspects relating to Indo-Egypt relations and the situation in Syria.
