relations between Croatia and Egypt and handed over presents from
President Stjepan Mesic - a painting by Ivan Rabuzin with a
monograph on Croatia's naive art; the Culture Ministry - a
sculpture by Dusan Dzamonja with a monograph, and a set of books
donated by the Zagreb National and University Library.
The head of the ceremony, Ambassador Khalifa, thanked Croatia on
behalf of the Alexandrian Library and expressed hope that the two
countries would continue cooperating successfully in the area of
science and culture.
