Sisi urged to oppose foreign meddling in Middle East
During talks with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Sisi, Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized the importance of rejecting external interference in the Middle East, considering that the peoples of the region are the ones rightful to decide their own affairs. He called for supporting dialogue and peace, and for keeping foreign powers away from double standards. The visit comes as part of the celebration of the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries, which have developed into a comprehensive strategic partnership since 2014, with a focus on strengthening cooperation in fields such as industry, transportation, and technology. The two sides also agreed to launch the third phase of expanding the Suez Canal Industrial Zone, reaffirmed efforts to de-escalate tensions in the region, and stressed the need for a permanent halt to wars. They highlighted support for the Palestinian cause, ensuring security on the Nile and safeguarding Egypt's water interests, and confirmed China's backing of Palestinian rights and the two-state solution.
