Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will visit Egypt Saturday for high-level talks focusing on bilateral relations and regional developments, according to Foreign Ministry sources.
Minister Fidan is expected to be received by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el‑Sissi during the visit.
The meetings will include exchanges of views on bilateral issues and regional developments, with concrete steps to further develop the two countries' multidimensional cooperation in all areas to be consulted.
Discussions will focus on assessments of the current status of ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel, mediated by Egypt, Qatar and the United States.
The talks will address joint efforts to end the genocide in Gaza and ensure uninterrupted delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza. The meetings will emphasize that Israel's actions targeting the two-state solution and recent steps toward annexing Gaza constitute the biggest obstacle to regional peace and stability.
The outcomes of the International Conference on Palestine held in New York on July 28-30, in which Türkiye participated, will also be evaluated.
Discussions will cover challenges in North and East Africa and the Sahel region, particularly Libya, Sudan and Somalia, and the contributions both countries can make to regional stability.
Minister Fidan previously met with his Egyptian counterpart Badr Abdelatti during the 51st Session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation held in Istanbul on June 20-21.
Fidan last visited Cairo on March 23 to participate in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation-Arab League Gaza Contact Group Meeting.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Abdelatti made a bilateral visit to Türkiye on Feb. 4.
