Cairo: The Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs HE Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani affirmed Thursday the State of Qatar and the Arab Republic of Egypt’s commitment to reaching a solution that ends the Israeli war on Gaza, despite all attempts to distort, disrupt, and undermine these efforts.

His Excellency stressed that without the bilateral partnership between the two countries and the scale of their efforts, the previous ceasefire agreement in the Strip would not have been achieved.

His Excellency made these remarks during a joint press conference with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Egypt HE Badr Abdel Aatty, held on the sidelines of the Sixth Session of the Qatari-Egyptian Joint Higher Committee in Cairo.

His Excellency stated that the international community must exert pressure on Israel to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza and to stop the famine currently affecting the Palestinian people, expressing hope for a ceasefire agreement to be reached as soon as possible.

His Excellency noted that his visit to Cairo comes within the framework of the Committee's sixth session and reflects the vision of both countries' leadership to deepen bilateral relations, which have witnessed remarkable development in recent years, adding that the recent visit of HE President of the sisterly Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah El Sisi to the State of Qatar was a significant milestone in advancing these relations.
