Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdel-Aty confirmed on Thursday that his country, in cooperation with Pakistan and Turkey, is playing a mediating role to reduce tensions in the Middle East by conveying messages between America and Iran.
At a press conference held in Cairo, Abdel-Aati warned of “extremely dangerous” political, economic and security repercussions for the region and the entire world as a result of the “war” in the region.
The Egyptian minister expressed his hope that international pressure and contacts would continue until a comprehensive truce is reached, stressing that these efforts “have not stopped at all and are continuing with the aim of calming the situation in Lebanon and ending the war in Iran,” emphasizing that the alternative to diplomacy would be disastrous for everyone.
In a related context, Abdel-Aati noted that Cairo fully supports the Lebanese state’s efforts to extend its sovereign authority over all its territory and to confine weapons to the official state institutions, as part of a comprehensive vision for stabilizing the burning fronts.
