Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouli chaired on Thursday the government’s weekly meeting at the new administrative capital. The session reviewed several files and current developments.
Madbouli said ongoing military operations are affecting global politics, energy markets, supply chains, trade, financing costs, and growth expectations. He stressed that Egypt’s government is closely monitoring these impacts to protect economic stability, secure supplies, and maintain competitiveness.
He reaffirmed Egypt’s firm position, under President Abdel Fattah El‑Sisi, calling for de‑escalation and rejecting unjustified attacks on Arab states. He noted that the President had emphasized this stance in recent calls with Arab leaders and during visits to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
The Prime Minister highlighted meetings held by the President on investment, trade, and fiscal priorities for the 2026/2027 budget. He said the government continues institutional reforms to ensure financial discipline, reduce debt, and strengthen resilience.
Madbouli also pointed to ongoing crisis management meetings to assess scenarios of escalation or calm. He stressed the need for readiness in all cases.
The meeting reviewed measures to reduce electricity use in government buildings, with each ministry responsible for implementation. Finally, Madbouli directed that procedures for settling building violations be simplified to close this file, and that housing registration be made easier for citizens.
