<p>The 26-28 May presidential election in Egypt was an important moment for the millions
of Egyptians who expressed their opinion through the ballot box. I made a statement
on 3 June in which I congratulated President el-Sisi on his election and urged Egypt's
leaders to ensure that Egypt's transition leads towards accountable and democratic
governance, underpinned by strong and accountable institutions. We look forward to
working with President el-Sisi and his government to strengthen the broad and productive
relationship between both our peoples.</p><p>We continue to believe that the best
way for Egyptians to achieve the goals of the 25 January revolution of 2011 is through
an inclusive political process in which all groups can participate. The UK stands
ready to support the Egyptian people in achieving this.</p>
