The title Apostolic Delegate to the Arab League is held by the prelate appointed Apostolic Nuncio to Egypt; he resides in Cairo.

Notes
- ↑ Both the Holy See Press Office[2] and the annual Acta Apostolicae Sedis[3] reported Brogi's appointment to Egypt with mentioning the Arab League, while a contemporary report assumes that appointment.[4] When Brogi met with Pope John Paul II on 29 November 2003, the official announcement identified him as Apostolic Nuncio to Egypt and Delegate to the Arab League.[5]
