Czechoslovakian-Egyptian Relations in the Years 1945–1948
Abstract
The study is focused on the relations between Czechoslovakia and Egypt in
the years 1945–1948. The first part outlines the relations at the time of
World War II because even in this period they were not interrupted. The
study also describes the internal and foreign policy of Czechoslovakia and
Egypt for the sake of gaining a better understanding of their
interrelationships. The greatest amount of attention, however, is paid to the
two countries’ business relations, their embassies and Czechoslovaks who
lived and worked in Egypt. The study describes the transformation of the
relations in connection with how the international situation was altered in
the examined period. The research is based primarily on a processing of
archival materials and their subsequent analysis.
