He welcomed the EU statement endorsing the plan and emphasized the need to intensify international efforts to ensure its implementation.

The minister also highlighted Egypt’s preparations to host a conference on Gaza’s reconstruction in cooperation with the Palestinian government and the United Nations.

The conversation also covered developments in Syria, where the top diplomat reiterated Egypt’s support for the Syrian state, its national institutions, and its stability amid recent security challenges.
