Message By H.E. Hussein El Saharty Ambassador Of The Arab Republic Of Egypt

On the occasion of the 69th anniversary of the Egyptian revolution of 23 July 1952

On 23rd July every year, the Arab Republic of Egypt proudly commemorates its National Day. Sixty-Nine years ago, Egypt witnessed a peaceful revolt that raised the slogans of dignity, equality, social justice and national sovereignty, enabling the modern Egyptian nation to assume its righteous role as an active player and advocate of peace, political and economic independence, and international justice across the world. Putting those noble principles into action has brought Egypt closer to her counterparts in the Global South who shared the same challenges, visions and aspirations, allowing her to build and foster ties with friendly nations including Sri Lanka. It gives me a great honor on this auspicious occasion to extend my sincere greetings and best wishes to His Excellency the President, the government and the friendly people of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka.
