===Africa===
In the 21st-century Egypt has encountered a major problem with [[immigration]], as millions of Africans attempt to enter Egypt fleeing poverty and war.  Border control methods can be "harsh, sometimes lethal." This has strained relations with Egypt's southern neighbors, and with Israel and the members of the EU as these immigrants attempt to move on to wealthier countries.<ref>{{cite web|title=Desperate on the Border|author=Soussi, Alasdair|publisher=Jerusalem Report|date=November 9, 2008|url= http://www.jpost.com/JerusalemReport/Article.aspx?id=119897|access-date=September 30, 2012}}</ref>

After the [[Yom Kippur War]], [[Egyptian mythology|Egyptian]] foreign policy began to shift as a result of the change in Egypt's leadership from President [[Gamal Abdel-Nasser]] to [[Anwar Sadat]] and the emerging peace process between Egypt and [[Israel]]. Sadat realized that reaching a settlement of the [[Arab–Israeli conflict]] is a precondition for Egyptian development. To achieve this goal, Sadat ventured to enhance US–Egyptian relations to foster a peace process with Israel. After a seven-year hiatus, both countries reestablished normal diplomatic relations on February 28, 1974.

===Military cooperation===

Following the [[Egypt–Israel peace treaty|peace treaty with Israel]], between 1979 and 2003, the US has provided Egypt with about $19 billion in military aid, making Egypt the second largest non-NATO recipient of US military aid after Israel. Also, Egypt received about $30 billion in economic aid within the same time frame. In 2009, the US provided a military assistance of US$1.3 billion (inflation adjusted US$ {{formatnum:{{Inflation|US|1.3|2009|r=2}}}} billion in {{CURRENTISOYEAR}}), and an economic assistance of US$250 million (inflation adjusted US$ {{formatnum:{{Inflation|US|250|2009|r=1}}}} million in {{CURRENTISOYEAR}}).
In 1989 both Egypt and Israel became a [[Major non-NATO ally]] of the United States.

Military cooperation between the US and Egypt is probably the strongest aspect of their strategic partnership. General [[Anthony Zinni]], the former Commandant of the [[US Central Command]] (CENTCOM), once said, "Egypt is the most important country in my area of responsibility because of the access it gives me to the region." Egypt was also described during the [[Clinton Administration]] as the most prominent player in the Arab world and a key US ally in the Middle East. US military assistance to Egypt was considered part of the administration's strategy to maintaining continued availability of Persian Gulf energy resources and to secure the Suez Canal, which serves both as an important international oil route and as critical route for US warships transiting between the [[Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean]] and either the [[Indian Ocean]] or the [[Persian Gulf]].

The Egyptian military provides indirect support for the foreign policy of Egypt in the region. Egypt is the strongest military power on the African continent, and the whole Southwest Asia.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |title=2024 Military Strength Ranking |url=https://www.globalfirepower.com/countries-listing.php |access-date=2024-08-15 |website=www.globalfirepower.com |language=en-US}}</ref>

Egypt is one of the strongest militaries in the Mediterranean.<ref name=":3" />

Egypt has the strongest and the most powerful military of the Arab world, ranking 15th globally.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Egypt-defense-expo |first=Arab News |title= Egypt ranked strongest Arab military force|date=17 January 2024 |url=https://www.arabnews.com/node/2443461/middle-east}}</ref>

===War on Terror===

Despite differences and periods of friction in relations between the two countries, the US-Egyptian relations under Mubarak have evolved moving beyond the Middle East peace process towards an independent bilateral friendship. It was in the US interest that Egypt was able to present moderate voice in Arab councils and persuade other Arab states to join the peace process and to normalize their relations with the US.

However lately Egyptian-American relations have become a little tense. This is due to a great extent to the Egyptian unwillingness to send troops to Afghanistan and Iraq in peace stabilization missions. Egypt strongly backed the US in its war against international terrorism after the September 11 attacks, but refused to send troops to Afghanistan during the war and after it. Egypt also opposed US military intervention of March 2003 in Iraq, continued to oppose US occupation of the country after the war and further refused to comply with US requests to send troops to the country even under a UN umbrella.

The issue of participation in the post-war construction efforts in Iraq has been controversial in Egypt and in the Arab world as a whole. Opponents say that the war was illegal and it is necessary to wait until Iraq has legal representative government to deal with it. On the other hand, supporters of participation argued that the responsibility to protect Iraqis and to help them in time of crisis should prevail and guide the Egyptian action in [[Iraq]], despite the fact that the Iraqis do not agree.

===Post-Mubarak relations with U.S.===
{{Update|section|date=December 2018}}
On January 21, 2012, the [[United States Secretary of Transportation|U.S. Secretary of Transportation]] [[Ray LaHood]]'s son, Sam, was detained by the Egyptian government and not allowed to leave the country as part of a politically charged criminal investigation by the Egyptian government into the activities of [[Non-governmental organization|non-governmental organizations (NGOs)]] monitoring local elections in Egypt. LaHood's son is the Egypt director of the [[International Republican Institute]]. The Egyptian government has detained twelve NGO representatives from leaving Egypt.<ref>{{cite news |title=As Tensions Rise, Egypt Bars Exit of Six Americans |author=Steven Myers and David Kirkpatrick |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/27/world/middleeast/egypt-bars-son-of-ray-lahood-from-leaving.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220101/https://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/27/world/middleeast/egypt-bars-son-of-ray-lahood-from-leaving.html |archive-date=2022-01-01 |url-access=limited |newspaper=New York Times |date=January 26, 2012 |access-date=26 January 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

On February 5, 2012, Egyptian authorities charged LaHood's son and 42 other individuals with "spending money from organizations that were operating in Egypt without a license." Nineteen Americans are part of the 42 charged. The U.S. government has made it clear that $1.5 billion in U.S. aid to Egypt could be withheld if the investigation is not finished quickly. Faiza Abu Naga, [[Ministry of International Cooperation (Egypt)|Egypt's Minister of International Cooperation]], is seen as the person pushing the investigation forward, straining U.S. and Egypt relations.<ref>{{cite news |last=Londoño, Ernesto and William Wan |title=Egypt to prosecute Americans in NGO probe; Sam LaHood among those facing criminal charges|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/egypt-to-prosecute-americans-in-ngo-probe/2012/02/05/gIQAQRderQ_story.html?tid=pm_pop |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=5 February 2012 |access-date=7 February 2012}}</ref>

Modern Egypt-India relations go back to the contacts between [[Saad Zaghloul]] and [[Mohandas Gandhi]] on the common goals of their respective movements of independence. In 1955, Egypt under [[Gamal Abdul Nasser]] and India under [[Jawaharlal Nehru]] became the founders of the [[Non-Aligned Movement]]. During the 1956 War, Nehru stood supporting Egypt to the point of threatening to withdraw his country from the [[Commonwealth of Nations]]. In 1967, following the [[Six-Day War]], India supported Egypt and the Arabs. In 1977, New Delhi described the visit of President [[Anwar al-Sadat]] to Jerusalem as a "brave" move and considered the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel a primary step on the path of a just settlement of the Middle East problem. Major Egyptian exports to India include raw cotton, raw and manufactured fertilizers, oil and oil products, organic and non-organic chemicals, leather and iron products. Major imports into Egypt from India are cotton yarn, sesame, coffee, herbs, tobacco and lentils. The Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum is also currently negotiating the establishment of a natural gas-operated fertilizer plant with another Indian company. In 2004 the [[Gas Authority of India Limited]], bought 15% of Egypt Nat Gas distribution and marketing company.

In 2008 Egyptian investment in India was worth some 750 million dollars, according to the Egyptian ambassador.<ref>Egypt State Information Service: [http://www.sis.gov.eg/En/Politics/Presidency/President/Activity/000001/0401050400000000000964.htm Mubarak starts historic visit to India to boost strategic partnership between the two countries] {{dead link|date=September 2016|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref>

In 1939, diplomatic relations between Egypt and [[Iran]] were upgraded to ambassadorial level, and [[Youssef Zulficar Pasha]] was appointed as Egypt's first ambassador in [[Tehran]]. In the same year, [[Princess Fawzia Fuad of Egypt|Princess Fawzia]] of Egypt, the sister of [[Farouk of Egypt|King Farouk I]], married [[Mohammad Reza Pahlavi]], the then crown prince (later shah) of Iran. However, since the [[Iranian Revolution|1979 Islamic Revolution]], Egypt's relations with Iran have been mostly strained. Egypt is the only Arab country not to have an embassy in Iran.<ref>[http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2009/07/02/77608.html Ahmadinejad unwelcome in Egypt: lawyer], Al Arabiya. July 2, 2009</ref> Contentious issues include Egypt's signing of the [[Camp David Accords]] with [[Israel]] in 1979, its support for [[Iraq]] in [[Iran–Iraq War|Iran's eight-year conflict]], the Islamic Republic's hailing of [[Khalid Islambouli]], the late [[President of Egypt|President]] [[Anwar Sadat]]'s assassin as a religious hero, seeing as there was both a street and mural named after him (however, the honorer was changed to [[Muhammad al-Durrah]], the 12-year-old [[Palestinian Arab|Palestinian]] boy shot and killed during the outset of the Second Intifada), and close Egyptian relations with the [[United States]], and most of the [[Western Europe]]an countries. In 2007, relations between the two have thawed in the fields of diplomacy and economic trade, only to collapse during the [[Gaza War (2008–09)]] when the Iranian and Egyptian politicians exchanged blames over inaction towards the escalation. Despite wavering tensions between [[Tehran]] and [[Cairo]], the two countries are members of the [[Organisation of Islamic Cooperation|OIC]] and the [[Developing 8]]

Since 1983, Iraq has repeatedly called for restoration of Egypt's "natural role" among Arab countries.  In January 1984, Iraq successfully led Arab efforts within the OIC to restore Egypt's membership.  However, Iraqi-Egyptian relations were broken in 1990 after Egypt joined the UN coalition that forced Iraq out of Kuwait. Relations have steadily improved in recent years, and Egypt is now one of Iraq's main trade partners (formerly under the [[Oil-for-Food Programme]]).

The state of war between both countries which dated back from the [[1948 Arab–Israeli War]] ended in 1973 with the [[Egypt–Israel peace treaty]] a year after the [[Camp David Accords]]. Since then, relations have improved.

Being a pioneer of peace making in the region and driven from its belief that a peaceful Middle East is the best solution for the development of Egypt, the third [[President of Egypt|Egyptian President]] [[Anwar Sadat]]'s groundbreaking trip to [[Israel]] in 1977, the 1978 [[Camp David Accords]], and the 1979 [[Egypt–Israel peace treaty]] represented a fundamental shift in the politics of the region; from a strategy of confrontation to one of peace as a strategic choice. Egypt was subsequently ostracized by other Arab states and ejected from the [[Arab League]] from 1979 to 1989.

However, due to circumstances of today's [[Israeli–Palestinian conflict]], full normalization of relations between these two countries is still halted and sometimes fought against in both countries. The Egyptian ambassador to Tel Aviv is often withdrawn, and the peace has been called a cool peace due to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

===Europe=== 
{{See also|Egypt–European Union relations}}
[[European Union]] relations with Egypt are based on a partnership relation within the Euro – Mediterranean and Middle East area, which is of vital strategic importance and a key external relations priority for the EU.

The [[Euro-Mediterranean Partnership]] launched at the 1995 Barcelona Conference between the European Union and its originally 12 [[Mediterranean]] Partners: [[Algeria]], [[Cyprus]], [[Egypt]], [[Israel]], [[Jordan]], [[Lebanon]], [[Malta]], [[Morocco]], [[Syria]], [[Tunisia]], [[Turkey]], and the [[Palestinian Authority]]. [[Libya]] currently has observer status at certain meetings. Since the enlargement, in May 2004 and January 2007, the co-operation and needs covers 35 countries, the EU of 27, including [[Cyprus]] and [[Malta]] and the 10 Mediterranean Partners.

Egypt has also taken an active role regarding Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, such as its participation in the technical meeting of which it was the speaker for the Arab group. Additionally, the first meeting of the Euro-Mediterranean Parliamentary assembly was co-chaired by an Egyptian.

Egypt has been one of the leading recipients among the Mediterranean partners in terms of total funds received from the [[MEDA programme]], the principal financial instrument of the European Union for the implementation of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. It is focused on policy-led, national structural reform and liberalisation programmes with a sector-wide approach.

The EU is Egypt's biggest trading partner currently accounting for 42% of Egyptian exports and 37% of imports, with the [[balance of trade]] still in the EU's favour. Trade between the EU and Egypt has risen by more than 5% in the last five years to reach around 11.6 billion euro in 2004. Egypt's main exports to the EU in 2004 were energy (39%), textiles and clothing (15%), agricultural products (9%), and chemicals (5%). Major imports from the EU were power generating machinery (21%), chemicals (16%), transport equipment (16%), and food and agricultural products (10%). Egypt has a serious but improving trade deficit that has put considerable pressure on the [[Egyptian pound]].

Trade relations with the EU are good although there are several outstanding trade and phyto-sanitary issues. These range from specific market access issues and difficulties for businesses facing a highly regulated and complex system through to restrictions in the export of agricultural goods (potatoes) and fishery products because they do not conform with EU quality norms.

Egypt is included in the European Union's [[European Neighbourhood Policy]] (ENP) which aims at bringing the EU and its neighbours closer.

Some time after the starting of the [[Arab Spring]], in March 2011 the [[European Union]] adopted the joint declaration ' A partnership for democracy and shared prosperity with the Southern Mediterranean', aimed at making a number of initiatives in the field of civic society support, financial assistance and further access to the EU market dependent upon advancement in the democratization process.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/where/neighbourhood/arab_spring/index_en.htm |title=EU response to the Arab Spring |access-date=2014-05-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140402172208/http://ec.europa.eu/europeaid/where/neighbourhood/arab_spring/index_en.htm |archive-date=2014-04-02 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

As far as Egypt was concerned this declaration envisioned the further deepening of the previous Free Trade Agreement stipulated in 2004, geared towards the inclusion of areas such as trade in services, government procurement, competition, intellectual property rights, and investment protection. To the 2011 declaration, a preliminary phase of the negotiations followed in June 2013, when the EU and [[Egypt]] began an exploratory dialogue on how to deepen trade and investment relations, in particular through the possible negotiation of a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tax-news.com/news/EU_Seeks_To_Resume_Talks_On_DCFTA_With_Egypt____63682.html|title=EU Seeks To Resume Talks On DCFTA With Egypt|access-date=21 February 2015|archive-date=21 February 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150221171821/http://www.tax-news.com/news/EU_Seeks_To_Resume_Talks_On_DCFTA_With_Egypt____63682.html|url-status=usurped}}</ref>

In August 2014, the [[European Union]] discussed the possibility of revising provision of aid to [[Egypt]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-egypt-protests-eu-idUSBRE97I0PU20130819|title=EU foreign ministers to discuss how to press Egypt over bloodshed|work=Reuters|date=19 August 2013|access-date=21 February 2015|archive-date=20 October 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141020190050/http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/08/19/us-egypt-protests-eu-idUSBRE97I0PU20130819|url-status=live|last1=Pawlak|first1=Justyna}}</ref>  However, divisions over the appropriate stance to adopt among European diplomats persisted, coupled by the fear that the vacuum might be soon filled by other actors, following a Saudi Foreign Minister's declaration that the Kingdom was ready to step in<ref name="bbc.co.uk">{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-23782685|title=BBC News - EU suspends arms sales to Egypt over crackdown|work=BBC News|date=21 August 2013|access-date=21 February 2015}}</ref> and those of Prime Minister Hazem al Beblawi about the possibility to appeal to Russia for foreign aid.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2013/08/201382153414138265.html|title=Egypt PM defiant on threat of aid cut|access-date=21 February 2015}}</ref>  Therefore, the only measure upon which the Foreign Ministers agreed was to suspend the sale of arms and materials that could be used for repression,<ref name="bbc.co.uk"/> but fell short to halt aid program which could damage civil society.

Earlier in July 2013, EU High Representative [[Catherine Ashton]] had visited Egypt in an attempt to promote reconciliation among the parties involved. She is credited for being the only foreign diplomat to get access to deposed president Mohamed Morsi.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/aug/04/baroness-ashton-morsi-secret-meeting|title=How Baroness Ashton engineered a secret meeting at dead of night with Morsi|author=Elizabeth Day|work=the Guardian|date=3 August 2013|access-date=21 February 2015}}</ref>

In April 2014, the European Union agreed to conduct electoral monitoring, for the first time, in occasion of the Presidential elections scheduled for 26/27 May 2014. Other organizations declined to join, as in their opinion this would legitimize what they called an unlawful take on power.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2014/04/eu-legitimising-sisi-coup-egypt-20144161181767834.html|title=Is the EU legitimising Sisi's coup?|author=Alastair Sloan|access-date=21 February 2015}}</ref>

A contract for the sale of 30 [[Rafale]] fighter jets was signed between the defense ministries of Egypt and France in May 2021. The official value of the contract was not disclosed at first and was later exposed to be worth 3.75 billion euro or $4.5 billion, by an investigative website called Disclose. In December 2020, French President [[Emmanuel Macron]] received criticism for not controlling the sale of weapons to Egypt on its poor [[human rights in Egypt|human rights record]], stating counter-terrorism concerns. The Egyptian defense ministry cited that the deal would be supported via a 10-year loan without disclosing its value or any further details. Rights organizations have denounced the deal and accused the French president of overlooking the increasing violation of freedom in Egypt under the regime of President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi. France's armed forces, finance, and foreign ministries were unavailable for comment. However, French officials claim that [[Paris]], under one of its policies, is avoiding criticism of countries on their human rights records to work with them effectively in private.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/france-sell-30-rafale-fighter-jets-egypt-investigative-website-2021-05-03/|title=France to sell Egypt 30 fighter jets in $4.5 bln deal -Egyptian defense ministry, report|accessdate=4 May 2021|website=Reuters|date=3 May 2021}}</ref>

On 3 February 2022, around 175 Members of European Parliament wrote a joint letter to foreign ministers and ambassadors to the [[United Nations Human Rights Council|UN Human Rights Council]] and requested them to secure the establishment of a UN human rights monitoring and reporting mechanism on Egypt. The MEPs were concerned that despite devastating human rights crisis in Egypt, the international communities persistently failed to take any meaningful action to address the situation. The Egyptian authorities, under President [[Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi]], have "brutally and systematically" repressed all forms of dissent and severely curtailed civic space.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.jcoetjen.de/artikel/joint-letter-urging-for-the-establishment-of-a-un-human-rights-monitoring-mechanism-on-egypt|title=Joint Letter Urging for the Establishment of a UN Human Rights Monitoring Mechanism on Egypt|accessdate=3 February 2022|website=Jan-Christoph Oetjen Official website|archive-date=3 February 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220203091228/https://www.jcoetjen.de/artikel/joint-letter-urging-for-the-establishment-of-a-un-human-rights-monitoring-mechanism-on-egypt|url-status=dead}}</ref>
