The Foreign Minister also affirmed the parameters of Egypt’s position regarding developments in the Sudanese crisis, stressing the priority of preserving Sudan’s unity and territorial integrity, as well as the paramount importance of maintaining Sudanese state institutions, considering this a fundamental pillar for restoring stability. He also reviewed the results of Egypt’s ongoing communications with the Sudanese side, including his visit to Port Sudan in November 2025.

Abdel-Aty highlighted Egypt’s efforts and contacts aimed at achieving a humanitarian truce and a ceasefire, in coordination with international and regional partners.

This, he noted, would contribute to ending the suffering of the Sudanese people and enhancing the prospects for stability in the country.
