President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi Meets Up With Germany’s Chancellor

Today, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi delivered a speech during the joint press conference with Olaf Scholz, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, at the headquarters of the Presidency of the Republic, during which he stressed that the visit comes at a very precise and dangerous time in light of the dangerous military escalation taking place in the Gaza Strip and the related regional challenges.

He began: “Allow me at the beginning to express my deep sorrow and pain and offer my sincere condolences to the victims of the brutal bombing of the Ahly Baptist Hospital. I affirm Egypt’s condemnation of all military actions that target civilians in violation and clear violation of all international laws. I stress the rejection of all deliberate practices against civilians and I call on the international community to intervene immediately to stop them”

He stated that the discussions with the chancellor “dealt in detail with the military confrontations between the Israeli and Palestinian sides, and the military escalation in the Gaza Strip, which claimed the lives of thousands of civilians on both sides and also portends grave dangers to civilians and the peoples of the region. The humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is deteriorating in an unfortunate and unprecedented way”

He added, “The continuation of the current military operations will have security and humanitarian repercussions that could spiral out of control, and even portend the danger of expanding the conflict, in the event that the efforts of all international and regional parties are not combined to immediately stop the current escalation.”

He also stressed the necessity of dealing with the Palestinian issue from a comprehensive and integrated perspective that guarantees the rights of the Palestinians by establishing their independent state on the 1967 borders, with “East Jerusalem” as its capital.
