The Administrative Capital for Urban Development (ACUD) has officially signed a land sale agreement with the Embassy of the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire in Cairo. This agreement involves a 5,000-square-meter plot located within the Diplomatic District of the New Administrative Capital, where the new embassy headquarters and the ambassador’s residence will be constructed. The signing ceremony was attended by Khaled Abbas, the Chairperson and Managing Director of ACUD, and Albert G. Dole, the Ambassador of Côte d’Ivoire to Egypt, alongside representatives from both parties.

During the signing, Ambassador Dole expressed his enthusiasm regarding the embassy’s relocation, stating, “We are delighted to be in the NAC, following the directives of the Ivorian President. This move is a testament to the strong ties between our two nations. We also extend our gratitude to ACUD for facilitating the contract signing in record time.” He pointed out that the New Administrative Capital symbolizes a significant advancement in urban development, equipped with contemporary infrastructure, modern transportation systems, abundant green spaces, and enhanced living standards.

Chairperson Khaled Abbas reflected positively on the agreement, highlighting its significance for the Diplomatic District’s development. He remarked, “We are pleased to sign this agreement, paving the way for the embassy’s relocation to the Diplomatic District in the New Administrative Capital. The presence of Côte d’Ivoire’s embassy is a valuable addition to the district.” Abbas also noted the increasing number of embassies transitioning to the New Administrative Capital, which further solidifies the area as one of the most sophisticated diplomatic locales worldwide.

The master plan for the initial phase of the New Administrative Capital encompasses the Diplomatic District, designated for foreign embassies and diplomatic missions currently located throughout Cairo. This initiative aims to establish a centralized and modern diplomatic hub, thereby enhancing the capital’s status as an essential global and regional diplomatic center.

This agreement with the Côte d’Ivoire Embassy marks a continuation of ACUD’s commitment to attract diplomatic missions to the New Administrative Capital, following various similar agreements, including the recent signing with the Embassy of Algeria in Cairo.

In conclusion, the recent agreement between ACUD and the Côte d’Ivoire Embassy marks a significant step for the New Administrative Capital, facilitating the establishment of enhanced diplomatic facilities within the area. With advancements in infrastructure and the relocation of multiple embassies, the NAC is poised to serve as a strategic diplomatic hub in both regional and global contexts.
