Switzerland and Egypt Celebrate 90 Years of Friendship with Cultural Finale on the Nile

Basant Ahmed On the evening of 19 June 2025, the Embassy of Switzerland in Egypt hosted the grand closing ceremony to mark the year-long celebration commemorating the 90th anniversary of the historic 'Friendship Treaty' between Switzerland and Egypt and to celebrate 90 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The landmark occasion brought together more than 300 distinguished guests — including government officials, artists, business leaders, academics, media, and members of the Swiss and Egyptian communities — for an inspiring cultural celebration along the Nile. Held at the Dahab Island Palace, the celebration honored the enduring bilateral ties since the signing of the Friendship Treaty in 1934 and the opening of Switzerland's first representation in Cairo in 1935. Over the past year, the Swiss Embassy has hosted a diverse program of cultural and diplomatic events, spanning exhibitions, musical performances, film screenings, and innovation-focused forums — all symbolizing the strength, resilience, and forward-looking nature of Swiss-Egyptian relations. The event served not as an ending but as a continuation of a shared story — a sentiment echoed by the Ambassador of Switzerland in Egypt, Dr. Andreas Baum in his remarks when he noted that 'This is not a breakup party. On the contrary, it's more like renewing our vows.' The year-long anniversary program, launched with a striking Saype land art fresco near the Pyramids of Giza in June 2024, has reflected the depth and diversity of the bilateral relationship — spanning culture, economic cooperation, archaeology, sustainability, and people-to-people connections. From jazz festivals and chocolate workshops to archaeological showcases, the series of events highlighted what the Ambassador described as 'a friendship built on shared values: trust, innovation, cultural, respect and a good sense of humor.' The closing event featured an immersive artistic program, including a photography exhibition showcasing Swiss and Egyptian perspectives, a musical performance, and interactive experiences reflecting Egyptian story telling through Swiss lenses. Guests were also treated to a culinary journey blending Swiss and Egyptian flavors, while a striking visual ambiance, featuring projections, brought together a timeline depicting the chronological highlights of this friendship. In his closing remarks, the Ambassador emphasized the significance of the 90-year journey and acknowledged the continuing relevance of the bilateral partnership in addressing global and regional challenges. He also paid tribute to the individuals who made the event possible, highlighting the leadership and creativity of women who were at the heart of its organization — from artists and musicians to producers and curators. Reflecting Switzerland's enduring humanitarian values, the speech also acknowledged the ongoing complexities of the current regional context, reaffirming a shared hope that the coming decades would bring peace, dignity, justice and adherence to international law. As the 90th anniversary celebrations draw to a close, the Embassy of Switzerland looks forward to deepening its multifaceted partnership with Egypt in the years ahead — building on a legacy of cultural exchange, economic cooperation, and mutual respect. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

Cardi B Drops Single "Outside" Just in Time for Summer: Stream

Yara Sameh Cardi B has returned on Friday with a brand thumping new song, 'Outside,' as she's ready to take over the summer. The Bronx bombshell announced plans for the song on Tuesday. 'We OUTSIDE this Friday,' she wrote on Instagram, which sent her fans into a frenzy. She also shared a block party-themed cover art filled with a flowing fire hydrant and party remnants such as red Solo cups and dominoes. Cardi has teased snippets of the single on social media in the past months and the positive reception has finally led to a full release. "I've been cuffed up too long, let me remind n—as. Your favorite player on your favorite team, he in my DM," she raps about ending her relationship with estranged husband Offset from whom she filed for divorce for a second time in July 2024. Cardi has laid low on the music front for much of 2025, with appearances on the Smurfs Movie soundtrack and joining Pardison Fontaine for 'Toot It Up'. 'Outside' marks Cardi's first solo single of 2025 and her first single since 'Enough' in 2024. The 32-year-old musician has kept busy throughout 2025 with appearances at the Met Gala and the start of a new chapter with NFL star Stefon Diggs. Cardi went public with her relationship in May when she was spotted courtside at a New York Knicks playoff game with Diggs. She has also been in mom mode, taking care of her three children. The singer posted the first official photos of her baby Blossom on Instagram earlier this week, which saw Cardi having a fun pool day at home with the kids.
