He stressed Egypt’s full solidarity—both leadership and people—with Qatar in the face of what he described as a blatant breach of international law and the UN Charter, calling the attack a provocative and unacceptable threat to Qatar’s security, stability, and territorial integrity.
The president also voiced Egypt’s support for any measures Qatar undertakes to safeguard its security and stability.
For his part, the Emir of Qatar expressed deep appreciation for Egypt’s position, praising the fraternal ties binding the two nations and their peoples.
Sheikh Tamim also briefed President El-Sisi on the latest developments in the aftermath of the Israeli strike.
Both leaders agreed on the urgent need for the international community to shoulder its responsibilities in responding to what they termed a flagrant Israeli violation, ensuring accountability for those responsible, and preventing further breaches of state sovereignty to safeguard regional and international peace and security.
