Regarding Libya, Abdelatty emphasized that Egypt prioritizes the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity. He advocated for a purely Libyan political process and noted that holding simultaneous presidential and parliamentary elections is essential to ending national division.
Addressing broader regional tensions, the Foreign Minister condemned Iranian attacks against Arab nations, expressing solidarity with the GCC, Jordan, and Iraq.
