African development aspirations and natural and human resources

President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi affirmed his aspiration for a better life for the peoples of the African continent, noting that its natural and human resources qualify it to occupy the global position it deserves.

El-Sisi explained that the challenges facing the continent are well known, and the most important thing is how to manage and implement the necessary plans to overcome them. He gave the example of the wealth of some African countries in livestock, which calls for the existence of an advanced meat industry to achieve self-sufficiency in meat within the continent and for export.
