Poor countries are distressed due to wealthier nations – Indian EAM S. JaishankarMoreover, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is on a visit to Egypt. While addressing the Indian community in the capital Cairo, Jaishankar made aware of this discontent in poor countries. Rich countries are imposing their decisions on poor countries without considering them. This has polarized the world and increased tension and discontent. Many countries are facing a tough situation due to this. The Indian External Affairs Minister imparted a message on this occasion that the countries with such independent arrows should raise their voices against this injustice.

Even earlier, during his visit to Australia, Indian External Affairs Minister Jaishankar had said there is a feeling of resentment in the poor and developing countries against the rich countries. Jaishankar had warned that these countries are also expressing regret that they are not getting representation in the United Nations. Even during his visit to Egypt, Jaishankar seems to have once again made rich countries aware of this. Meanwhile, India and Egypt are not only focusing on trade cooperation, but India wants to develop bilateral cooperation with Egypt that goes beyond trade, Jaishankar explained.

The Foreign Minister of Egypt told us that the bilateral trade between India and Egypt amounts to $7 billion; considering the potential of both countries, this trade is significantly less. The delegation that accompanied EAM Jaishankar to Egypt also agreed with this claim of the Egyptian Foreign Minister. Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar said that efforts would be taken to expand this trade cooperation between the two countries in the future.
