German Chancellor Angela Merkel\u2019s visit to Egypt<\/strong> now appears confirmed for 2-3 March, Ahram Online<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry is heading to Washington on Saturday<\/strong> for a chat with US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and to lay the groundwork for a visit to the White House by President Abdel Fattah El Sisi.<\/p>\n

This, again? <\/strong>On the same day at home, a \u201cnational dialogue\u201d session on the Daba\u2019a nuclear power plant will bring state officials and executives from Russia\u2019s Rosatom together with local groups and members of the House of Representatives in Marsa Matrouh, Al Ahram<\/a> reports. The Electricity Ministry has reportedly been in and out of closed-door meetings with the state\u2019s Nuclear Power Plants Authority and Rosatom officials to discuss the terms of the contracts for the plant and finalize the paperwork by March, Al Shorouk<\/a> says.<\/p>\n

A busy week for Amr El Garhy: <\/strong>The finance minister will appear before the House next week to present the USD 12 bn IMF loan agreement (and possibly to talk budget projections) and will also speak at an AmCham Egypt gathering<\/strong> on Egypt\u2019s financial reform agenda on Sunday, 26 February, Al Masry Al Youm<\/a> reports. Look for news next week of the Finance Ministry\u2019s early outline of the FY2017-18 budget, too.<\/p>\n

Unnamed officials tell Al Shorouk<\/a> that El Garhy\u2019s ministry has instructed other state entities to use a temporary exchange rate of EGP 13-15 per greenback in their submissions for next year\u2019s budget <\/strong>until a final projection is calculated in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
