El-Sisi’s presidential campaign made an official announcement about the widespread international and regional participation in the Cairo Peace Summit, scheduled for Saturday, October 21, 2023.
A post on their official Facebook page stated, “This summit provides a significant opportunity for world leaders to convene, foster dialogue, and enhance cooperation with the goal of achieving peace and stability in the region and globally. The response to President El-Sisi’s invitation reflects immense confidence in his leadership and Egypt’s influential role in fortifying international peace and security.”
This grand event is expected to draw the attention of global leaders and key international organizations. The Palestinian issue will be at the forefront of discussions.
Tensions heightened when Israel suggested Palestinians evacuate Gaza City, moving southwards. This move resonated with deep concerns in Egypt, being interpreted as an effort to displace numerous Palestinians towards its borders.
