Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi discussed Middle East peace efforts during talks in Washington with White House senior adviser Jared Kushner, according to a statement by the Egyptian presidency.
El-Sisi pledged that Cairo will continue to support efforts to ensure “a just, lasting solution” to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict based on resolutions of international legitimacy, the two-state solution and the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative.
El-Sisi urged the international community to take action to end human suffering in occupied Palestinian territory, namely in the Gaza Strip.
The Egyptian president is set to meet with US President Donald Trump in the White House on Tuesday.
