He noted that the conference is expected to serve as a key step in mobilizing international support for Gaza’s reconstruction efforts and advancing stability in the region.
Regarding the crisis in Sudan, Abdelatty reaffirmed Egypt’s steadfast position in support of Sudan’s unity, stability, and national institutions.
He pointed to Egypt’s efforts within the framework of the Quartet Mechanism to support de-escalation and reach a comprehensive nationwide cease-fire.
He stressed the importance of unified regional and international efforts to reach a comprehensive humanitarian truce that would pave the way for an inclusive political process, while ensuring the continued flow of humanitarian and relief aid across Sudan.
He also condemned the recent violations in el-Fasher, calling for their immediate cessation and affirming Egypt’s continued commitment to providing humanitarian and relief support to the Sudanese people to alleviate their suffering.
