Egypt's interim Prime Minister, Hazem el-Beblawi, has said the
government is close to agreeing a schedule for repaying $6bn in
outstanding debt to foreign oil companies, Reuters has reported.
Reaching an agreement would lead to a rise in investments from the
companies to $15bn within two years, said el-Beblawi. "We are in
debt to foreign oil firms for around $6 billion, which is what led
them to stop investing. We are on the verge of reaching an agreement
with them to schedule the debts," he said.
