Russian, Egyptian Leaders Hold Talks on Regional Crisis
"Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation with President of the Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. The situation resulting from the unprecedented escalation of the conflict in the Middle East was discussed in detail," the statement said.
Both leaders stressed the importance of an immediate cessation of hostilities and the pursuit of political and diplomatic solutions that fully consider the interests of all countries in the region.
"A detailed exchange of views also took place on current issues of bilateral relations, including the implementation of large-scale investment projects in the energy and industrial sectors. The overall positive dynamics of multifaceted Russian-Egyptian cooperation were noted," the statement added.
Regional tensions have intensified since Israel and the US launched an offensive against Iran on February 28, reportedly causing over 1,340 deaths, including then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Tehran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, as well as Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf states hosting US military assets, resulting in casualties, infrastructure damage, and disruptions to global markets and aviation.
