Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Tanju Bilgic described these relations as crucial for the stability and prosperity of the region. He added that Egypt is Turkey’s largest trading partner in Africa.

The trade exchange between the two countries reached $4.675 billion last year, the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics says.

Abdel Moneim Saeed, a member of the Egyptian Senate, ruled out a political consensus between Egypt and Turkey in the near term.

So Turkey will really sacrifice Muslim Brotherhood for rapprochement with Egypt.
