The United Arab Republic : The early days in pictures

The United Arab Republic "UAR" was the name of the new born country union between Egypt and Syria.

Here are some photos from President Gamal Abd El-Nasser official website for the early days of the Union , a quick journey for photos My generation did not see till now from the 31st of January 1958 to 28th of February in the same year , the photos mostly for Presidents Nasser and  Al-Quwatli , some of them in Egypt , some of them in Syria , they were showing overwhelming reaction of the Egyptian and Syrian people and they were also showing some faces that played very important in the future then.
