- Called on the US and Iran to prioritize dialogue and peaceful solutions... warned of the repercussions of military escalation
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi renewed his firm rejection today, Tuesday, of any threat to the security of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Arab Gulf states, emphasizing that Arab national security constitutes an indivisible whole, and that Egypt stands firmly alongside its brothers to ensure regional stability and safeguard the interests of their peoples.
The Egyptian president called on all parties involved in the escalating crisis between the United States and Iran to exercise reason, allow sufficient space for understanding and political dialogue, and reach peaceful solutions that end the state of tension.
El-Sisi warned of the dangers of sliding into military escalation at this time, stressing that continuing on this path threatens the security and stability of the entire region with the harshest consequences, and called for prioritizing the political track and preventing bloodshed before it is too late.
The Egyptian president noted that Egypt’s support for the Gulf states is a natural extension of the concept of shared Arab national security, affirming that Egypt’s military movements do not extend beyond Egypt’s borders or the borders of sister states that Cairo is committed to protecting in terms of their security and stability.
