Egyptian President  Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and his Turkish counterpart President Recep Tayyip Erdogan affirmed the "depth of historical ties between the two countries".

Turkey and Egypt began talks to restore relations in 2021. Despite the relative improvement in relations between the two countries after meetings held at the level of deputy foreign ministers, progress was slow and the two countries did not agree to exchange ambassadors. 

Despite deteriorating ties, Carnegie Middle East Center earlier reported that the trade exchange between the countries nearly tripled in a span of 13 years between 2007 and 2020.
