An official Egyptian source anticipated that the European Investment Bank (EIB) would soon approve a $100 million aid package for Egypt. The funds are expected to come in an attempt to boost the Egyptian economy following the September 11 attacks on the United States, reported Al-Hayat. A delegation from EIB is expected in Cairo to discuss the matter in the near future. — (menareport.com)
