Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi met Egypt’s Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty on
Thursday afternoon to discuss bilateral ties and regional developments, with a
focus on the Palestinian situation. Araghchi said all countries, particularly
Islamic states, have a moral and international-legal responsibility to prevent
large-scale harm to Palestinians. He cited Israeli actions against Lebanon,
Syria and other countries, and called for stronger regional coordination —
including within the United Nations and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation
— to counter Israel’s expanding influence and actions that threaten regional
security and stability. The two ministers also discussed strengthening
Iran–Egypt bilateral cooperation.
