Mr Ali El-Asheri, the Egyptian Assistant Foreign Minister for Consular Affairs, stated that the Egyptian embassy in Djibouti has paid off in resolving the dispute between 5 Egyptian fishermen, who are working on a ship owned by a Djiboutian citizen. The dispute was over the company that owes the ship, refrained from paying their financial dues for six months, and terminating the signed contracts.
The efforts exerted by the embassy led to resolving the problems, as the company paid all the financial dues for the five fishermen, and paid their return tickets.
