President Abdel Fattah El Sisi affirmed that Egypt is making great efforts to end the war in the Gaza Strip.
The president expressed his appreciation for US President Donald Trump and his strong will to stop the war, which was reflected in sending a delegation to participate in negotiations for a ceasefire, the release of captives and detainees, and the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinians.
Delivering a speech at the graduation ceremony of a new batch of students at the Police Academy in New Cairo on Wednesday, the president said that Egypt is exerting all possible efforts to achieve the two-state solution and to rebuild the Gaza Strip for the Palestinian people in Gaza as well as in the West Bank.
He expressed hope that the ongoing negotiations involving delegations from Palestine and Israel will come up with an agreement leading to the delivery of humanitarian aid and the Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, adding, “I have received encouraging news in this regard.”
He highlighted that “Egypt’s efforts to end the war in Gaza have not stopped throughout the past two years. Egypt has always been very keen to engage with the Palestinian cause, not only during the past two years, but also over the past ten, twenty, or even thirty years.”
