Ebermann, in a press release, said that Solana was due to arrive in the Egyptian capital Friday evening from Ramallah on a day's visit after talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. He further noted that the EU official was expected to holds talks with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmad Abul-Gheit, and the Secretary-General of the Arab league Amr Moussa, as well as Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Sulaiman.
