Environment Minister Yasmine Fouad held a meeting Saturday 30/04/2022 with Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Egypt Jan Fulík to discuss preparations for COP27, which will be organized by Egypt in November.

Fouad stressed deeply-rooted relations between Egypt and the Czech Republic, welcoming cooperation between the two countries in the fields of climate change and environment.
