Mohamed Amine Youssef Bey

Mohamed Amine Youssef worked as an economic adviser to the Egyptian government in Sudan before representing Egypt in Washington. Soon after presenting credentials in October 1935, he pressed for negotiations on a commercial agreement with the United States. In January 1936, he urged Henry Grady to begin talks, while the State Department deferred them because other trade negotiations were already in progress. ^{1, 2, 3}
