He served in the Egyptian cabinet from 1974 to 1978 in various posts, including deputy foreign minister.[6] He also assumed the post of advisor to the Vice President of Egypt and was the secretary of the president for external communications from February 1974 to August 1976.[2] He worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in different capacities, including member of the Egyptian mission to the United Nations Office at Geneva and New York and political advisor from August 1993 to September 1997.[7] He served as the Ambassador of Egypt to Japan from September 1997 to September 1999.[8] Next he served as the Ambassador of Egypt to the United States from October 1999 to September 2008.[9][7] Therefore, his term saw the September 11 attacks.[10]
