The two presidents also discussed the situation in the Middle East. President El-Sisi highlighted Egypt's efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza and provide humanitarian aid. In this regard, the two sides emphasized the need to begin the reconstruction process in the Gaza Strip without displacing its people, leading to a comprehensive and permanent solution based on the principles of international legitimacy and guaranteeing the establishment of an independent Palestinian state along the June 4, 1967, borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, being the only way to achieve lasting peace, security, and stability in the region.
