Russian Minister Mulls Grain Storage Project in Egypt

Russian Agriculture Minister Nikolai Fyodorov said on Tuesday Russian companies may take part in building grain storage facilities in Egypt with a capacity of up to 8 million tonnes.

Fyodorov did not provide any other details of the project to reporters in Cairo. The capacity of the new storage facilities would be significantly larger than Egypt had previously planned to build.
