President Abdel Fattah El Sisi underlined the historic ties between Egypt and Serbia, especially as the two leaders were among the founders of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM).

He said the historical ties between the two countries are encouraging for capitalizing in on their capabilities to attain their joint goals and confront all regional and international challenges.

During an honoring ceremony in Serbia on Thursday, Sisi expressed gratitude for granting him an honorary doctorate by the Belgrade University.

Sisi said the Belgrade University is one of the largest and oldest universities in Serbia which was established more than 200 years ago.
