Chinese President Xi Jinping is set to arrive in Cairo this week, marking his first visit to Egypt in a decade. Since Xi's last trip in 2016, when he became a key diplomatic figure in the region, Egypt has undergone significant changes.
Upon his arrival, Xi will witness the emergence of a new administrative capital east of Cairo, alongside modern highways and railways. The Mediterranean and Red Sea coasts have also seen the development of luxurious resorts, while the Suez Canal investment zone aims to establish itself as a global trade hub.
