Ambassador Ahmed Qattan, Ambassador of Saudi Arabia in Cairo, said that there are some tourist companies that have a great exaggeration in the prices they offer for the Hajj or Umrah. Some companies have reached the "Hajj Bagdaj" to 170 thousand pounds. These figures are much exaggerated.

"By the way, he is talking positively about the new visa system," he said during his telephone conversation with media reporter Ahmed Mousa in the program "On My Account", which was broadcast on "Sada al-Balad". "Rich and poor when they apply for a Hajj or Umrah visa for the time the first one will be free, and the Kingdom last year gave more than one million Umrah visas to Egypt only. In the Year, if we receive a million Egyptian pounds for Umrah for the first time, Saudi Arabia or the Saudi Embassy in Cairo will not receive any fees for this visa. The poor, either if the rich person tries to obtain a Umrah visa for the second time, and has a material ability to pay, the whole issue is to allow the brothers in Egypt and the Arab countries to perform Umrah for the first time. As for the person who is unable to perform Umrah, He has the financial ability. "

"What we see on Egyptian television in the satellite channels and the attack on Saudi Arabia does not represent the Egyptian government, nor is it the case in Saudi Arabia," Qattan said.

The Saudi ambassador pointed out that the attack on Saudi Arabia was not issued by any government official and therefore will not take it into account, stressing that the Saudi-Egyptian relations are very distinctive and strong and will not be affected by anything.
