AmCham Egypt Is Knocking Doors Of US Foreign Secretary, IMF Today

Within the coming few hours, the media delegation accompanying the AmCham Egypt’s Doorknock mission will be meeting with the  US foreign secretary officials as well as with the International Monetary Fund’s team in Washington, DC. The meeting aims to present the Egyptian media vision as regard to various economic and political issues experienced by the country.

The American Chamber of Commerce in Egypt (AmCham Egypt)’s Doorknock mission will discuss with the US foreign secretary officials the mechanisms to strengthen the Egypt-USA economic cooperation as well as offering new facilities for the Egyptian investors to come in and out the United States in order for boosting the trade relations between the two countries.

Another meeting next Tuesday is scheduled to take place between the Doorknock mission and Dr. Abdel Shakour Shalaan – the Executive Director representing Egypt and twelve Arab countries and the Maldives on the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

This meeting will tackle the latest development in the ongoing negotiations between the Egyptian authorities and the IMF over the US$ 4.8 billion after the latter had paid the country a 10-day visit to review the government’s economic reform plan.

The AmCham’s Doorknock mission chaired by Gamal Muharam, Chairman of the Chamber, has traveled last Wednesday to Washington, DC to start a new round of talks with U.S. Administration and Congressional Members in order to communicate Egypt’s economic reform process as well as take part in the spring annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank which are being organized in Washington, DC for 3 days.

Muharram has described the current mission as the most significant in comparison with the former missions, as this mission bears big responsibilities owing to it is the first after Mohamed Morsi elected a president along with the critical condition of the Egyptian economy and hampering the negotiations between the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Egyptian government.
