Chinese President Xi Jinping is set to embark on a state visit to Kyrgyzstan and Egypt from August 30 to September 3, as announced by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. During his visit to Kyrgyzstan, Xi will attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit, which will also feature member states such as Russia and Iran.
In Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, Xi will engage in discussions on strengthening cooperation and addressing major global and regional concerns. Xi's visit to Egypt, for the first time in ten years, holds particular significance for enhancing bilateral relations. During his time in Egypt, Xi will meet with President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to discuss measures to promote peace and stability in the region.
With significant economic ties to the Middle East, China has historically been one of the region's top sources of crude oil imports before the ongoing conflict.
