General Sami Anan, military chief of staff, on Sunday met with Terry Wolff, a high ranking American military official, to discuss the importance of continuing joint military exercises between the two strategic allies, state-run MENA news agency has reported.

MENA added that in the meeting, Anan discussed with Wolff ways to improve bilateral military cooperation and to benefit from joint military exercises.
