RIYADH: Egypt has dismissed suggestions of the issuance of any ministerial directives that seek to prevent Saudi Arabian imports into the Egyptian market. 

Yasser Gaber, the Egyptian ministry of trade and industry’s spokesperson, asserted the ministry’s keenness to provide the necessary facilities to Saudi companies to invest or export to the Egyptian market, Al Arabiya reported. 

Some Saudi companies’ conditions are being reconciled in accordance with the registration rules for factories qualified to export to the Egyptian market, he added. 

Striking a more conciliatory approach, Gaber said that economic and trade relations between both countries are witnessing remarkable developments.
