President El-Sisi Mourns the Loss of Former Prime Minister Dr. Ismail

It is with deep sorrow that I mourn the loss of one of Egypt's finest men. Former Prime Minister Dr. Sherif Ismail was a man of virtue and conscience.He was truly a great man, who undertook responsibility at one of the most difficult times and conditions and he was up to it. I have known him as a selfless, dedicated,trustworthy and giving person, upholding his country's and people's interests above personal gains.

I mourn the loss of Dr. Ismail and offer my sincere condolences to the people of Egypt.
