Egypt President Says Real Peace In Middle East Hinges Upon Having Independent Palestinian State


(MENAFN- The Peninsula) QNA

Cairo: The real peace in the Middle East won't be achieved unless an independent Palestinian state is created, based on the principles of international legitimacy that restore rights to their rightful owners, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi affirmed on Monday.

During a speech marking the 52nd anniversary of Egypt's October War victory, El-Sisi stressed that peace imposed by force will only beget resentment, while peace based on justice generates genuine normalization and enduring coexistence among peoples.

He warmly greeted and expressed appreciation to US President Donald Trump for his initiative to negotiate a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip following two years of war, genocide, killing, and devastation.

In addition, President El-Sisi noted that a ceasefire, the return of hostages and prisoners, the redevelopment of Gaza, and the initiation of a peaceful political pathway toward the creation and recognition of a Palestinian state represent the correct track toward lasting peace and stability, as hoped by all.
