The Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to advise that, in a virtual meeting held on 31st May, 2021, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hon. Darren A. Henfield MP, received the Copie d’Usage of Ambassador-designate of the Arab Republic of Egypt to the Bahamas, H.E. Mohamed Maher Adel El-Adawy.
In a brief meeting held after the Minister received the Copie d’Usage, both sides acknowledged the friendship and cordial relations between The Bahamas and Egypt. Matters of mutual importance were discussed, such as the encouragement of cultural exchange, improving the promotion of tourism, and cooperation in investments.
Both sides agreed on strengthening bilateral relations, for which technical meetings will be held during the course of the year. While the presentation of the Copie d’Usage will allow the Ambassador-designate to undertake activities at the functional level, he will present his Letters of Credence formally to the Governor-General at a later date.
