Egypt: We have a clear vision to rebuild Gaza without displacing Palestinians

Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said that Egypt has a clear vision to rebuild Gaza without any Palestinians leaving their land.

Abdelatty added: “We have a clear vision for rebuilding the Gaza Strip without any citizen leaving his land.” There is Arab consensus in this regard, he added, and talks are taking place with the UN on the matter.

“The Egyptian efforts regarding Gaza are ongoing and will not stop with regard to implementing the specific requirements of the ceasefire agreement in its three stages,” he stated, noting that this process is considered a first stage leading to the start of a credible political process that leads to the establishment of a Palestinian state to prevent the recurrence of cycles of violence and aggression.

He stressed that this is the only way to achieve security and stability in the region.

Abdelatty noted the importance of implementing urgent projects for early recovery in the Gaza Strip along with the entry of aid, especially drinking water, sanitation and health, adding that Egypt is preparing a plan in cooperation with the UN in this regard.

He pointed out that implementing the requirements of the ceasefire agreement in its three stages leads to the sustainability of the ceasefire.
