Egyptian commercial delegation to visit Turkey in May

An Egyptian commercial delegation is visiting Turkey on May 19 to resume talks on establishing a joint free trade zone. A statement issued by the Egyptian Ministry of Trade said that the Egyptian - Turkish business council's success in increasing the volume of joint trade by 15% since 1993 urged the joint corporations to make haste in implementing the free trade zone to increase the trade volume by more than $1 billion annually, which is the current prevailing average between the two countries.
