Official and diplomatic sources said that the terms for the return to normal of relations between Egypt and (the Kingdom of) Saudi Arabia (KSA) have not yet been agreed on by the two countries. Relations between Egypt and Saudi Arabia have been strained since Egypt voted for two UN Security Council bills on Syria. After that, the KSA suspended oil supplies to Cairo from Aramco company for three months, headed by crown prince Mohammad bin Salman, without stating clear reasons. Saudi Arabia suspended as well all MoUs and agreements signed with Sisi during Salman's visit to Cairo last April. Egypt's stance on the Syrian crisis is fixed, said the sources, pointing out that Egypt favors a political resolution of the conflict in Syria and backs the supply of humanitarian aid to the Syrian people.
