Egypt President Mohamed Morsi will attend the 24th Arab League Summit, expected to take place in Doha, Qatar on 26 and 27 of March.
Morsi received an invitation on Tuesday hand-written by prince of Qatar Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, and delivered by Qatar's ambassador to Cairo Saif Bin Moqadam Al-Boenain.
According to Al-Ahram Arabic-language news website, Morsi said that he is looking forward to what can be achieved at the summit noting how critical and challenging a period for it is for the region.
Qatar has been a prominent source of foreign aid to Egypt since the January 25 Revolution in 2011.
Qatar's finance minister Youssef Kamal told Reuters on Monday that his country has given Egypt 5 billion dollars to date but does not plan to give anymore presently.
