During the call, the Qatari emir expressed deep appreciation for the tireless Egyptian efforts on the Arab arena, led by President Sisi, to consolidate regional peace and security, the latest of which was the success of Egypt’s mediation to reach a quick ceasefire between the Palestinians and Israelis and restore calm to the Gaza Strip.

In this respect, Sheikh Tamim valued the brotherly relations binding the two countries and expressed Qatar’s keenness to strengthen the existing cooperation between the two countries and open new vistas for cooperation.
