Egyptian delegation in Baghdad to discussing medicine exports to Iraq

A high-ranking delegation from the Egyptian holding company for medicine is due to visit Iraq during the coming week to hold talks with high-ranking Iraqi officials regarding Egypt's medicine exports to Iraq.

Dr. Galal Ghourab, head of the company, said yesterday that the company will present an Egyptian offer during the visit including a list of medicines that Egypt wishes to export to Iraq and their prices in framework of the sixth stage of the oil-for-food agreement.

The last date for submitting the bid to Iraq is July 7.

Dr. Ghourab said Egypt expects to export medicines worth 5 to 7 million dollars to Iraq.
