Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, Egypt has reaffirmed its unwavering support for Palestinian rights, emphasizing the need for self-determination, the right of return, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. This strong declaration comes as the region faces growing instability due to ongoing conflicts and historical injustices.
Egypt Calls for Global Action on Palestinian Issue
In an official statement released by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Egypt highlighted that sustainable regional peace and security can only be achieved by acknowledging the rights of all peoples without discrimination. The ministry stressed the urgent need for the international community to support a political framework that addresses the Palestinian cause, aiming to end historical injustices and restore Palestinians' legitimate rights.
The statement specifically condemned the ongoing Israeli occupation and military actions in Gaza, calling for immediate global intervention to secure peace and uphold humanitarian values.
Firm Stance on Palestinian Self-Determination

The country also reinforced its support for the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their homeland, in accordance with international humanitarian law and relevant UN resolutions.

Ongoing Advocacy for Middle East Peace
Through diplomatic efforts and strategic partnerships, Egypt remains a key player in promoting peace and security in the Middle East. The country is committed to working with regional and international allies to achieve a just, lasting solution that respects the rights of the Palestinian people and fosters stability across the region.
