"Russia’s position is clear. Moscow has solid grounds to act this way," he said. "We understand that, as we understand the circumstances this decision has been taken in. We hope the situation will mend in the near future, which is in the interests of both countries."
He said Cairo was not yet ready to comment on the situation. "The cabinet, the ministers and our ambassador to Russia are assessing the situation," he noted.
He said he hoped this decision would be revised. "In any case, we, on our part, are ready to offer any possible help and support any initiatives and ideas on that subject that would be advanced by our Russian friends so that we could live through this difficult period," he said.
Zazou noted that Egypt’s authorities are taking all possible measures to ensure security of tourists.
"The Egyptian authorities are taking all necessary measures to ensure security of tourists," he pledged. "Such measures have only been enhanced in the recent period. We are ready to invite any side to make sure that additional measures have been taken, which proves we are doing our best to ensure safety of all our guests, including, of course, Russian tourists."
Zazou said that the situation in Egypt’s tourism sector was very bad. "The situation in the sphere of tourism in Egypt is difficult, unfavorable," he said. "Most of Egypt’s tourists are Russians and Britons. Russia ranks first in terms of tourist flows. It is followed by the United Kingdom. And these two countries have suspended flights, so the situation is very difficult, especially in Sharm el-Sheikh."...........http://tass.ru/en/world/834566
