Parl't speaker: Christmas is feast for all Egyptians

Parliament Speaker Ali Abdel Aal said on Saturday that Christmas is a feast for all Egyptians.

He recalled the words of late Pope Shenouda III of Alexandria: "Egypt is not a country we live in but a country that lives within us".

Greeting Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of Saint Mark on the Christmas, the speaker wished finalizing the project on the path of the Holy Family's journey from Egypt's Arish to Palestine. 

Meanwhile, Pope Tawadros thanked Abdel Aal and his accompanying delegation for greeting him on the Christmas, wishing prosperity and stability to Egypt.
