Sisi voiced his concerns during a Tuesday’s meeting with French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.
The president said there was “the risk of the spread of radicalization in the Middle East and Africa, which will be extended inevitably to Europe, especially the countries north of the Mediterranean.” He urged a “comprehensive strategy” by the international community to handle the threat.
