Egyptian Foreign Affairs Minister Sameh Shoukry received his Sudanese counterpart, Ibrahim Ghandour, at Cairo Airport on Friday. The Sudanese minister had postponed his planned trip to Cairo, originally planned for the Sunday before. Ghandour told Sudanese local media that he had informed the Egyptian side that the postponement of the visit was due to internal issues. Last week, Sudanese prime minister Bakri Hassan Salih extended the ban on Egyptian agricultural products, which was announced last September. Ten days ago, Sudanese president Omar Al-Bashir accused Egypt of supporting the armed groups in Darfur in western Sudan.
