Egypt launched a new trade maritime navigation route connecting Ain Sokhna of Suez Governorate to East African countries, said Egypt\u2019s Ministry of Public Business Sector in a statement on Sunday. <\/p>\n
Operating the navigation route will start in October, the ministry said, adding that it will serve six countries along the Red Sea and Indian Ocean, in addition to landlocked countries in Africa. <\/p>\n
The shipping lines work to transport goods, provide logistical services to exporters and importers and promote internal Egyptian trade as well as trade between Egypt and the African countries. <\/p>\n
Furthermore, the government is thinking of reviving the notion of establishing a shipping trade line between Egypt and Europe via Ro-Ro deal with Turkey, an official at the ministry told Egypt Today. <\/p>\n
In February 2012, Egypt\u2019s state-owned newspaper of El-Gomhoria reported that Egypt and Turkey launched RoRo shipping line to transport Egyptian products to Europe via Port of Mersin in Turkey. However, Egypt has suspended RoRo deal due to the political difference with Ankara in 2015. <\/p>\n
