Russian and Egyptian militaries are regularly coordinating their efforts
in the fight against terrorism by sharing information and training staff and
delivering specialized technology, Russian Ambassador to Egypt Sergei
Kirpichenko said.
“There is solid coordination between our militaries. That’s all I can say at
the moment. There is serious joint understanding in these conditions and
obviously in regard to exchanging information there is also tight
cooperation, which is of a regular character for sure,” Kirpichenko told RIA
Novosti in an interview.
The ambassador said that the exchange of information is not the only
cooperation between the two countries in the fight against terrorism and
includes anti-terror training.
“We cooperate in counter-terrorism issues on a multilateral cooperation of
exchanging information, training staff, and delivering so to speak
anti-terrorist technology and this involves not two or four, but more
organs. The Egyptians are very interested in this and we completely
understand their interest,” Kirpichenko said.
