Egypt’s Foreign Minister, Badr Abdelatty, has defended the now-defunct Memorandum of Understanding between the US and Iran, despite escalating tensions. In an interview, Abdelatty maintained the agreement’s value even with the return to heightened conflict. He also voiced support for the Gaza plan proposed by former US President Trump, asserting it represents the only existing guarantee for peace in the region. This stance positions Egypt as potentially diverging from wider regional reactions to the Trump plan. Abdelatty's comments suggest a continued belief in the framework despite its current stalled status and broad criticism. The minister’s position underscores Egypt’s strategic considerations amidst shifting geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East. His statements offer a nuanced perspective on both the Iran deal and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
