On March 18, Egypt’s Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty and Algeria’s Foreign Minister Ahmed Attaf conducted a phone call to address the rapidly deteriorating security situation in the Middle East. Both officials stressed the urgent necessity to end the current military hostilities escalating across the region.
The ministers discussed the serious consequences of continued conflict, which threatens regional peace and security, including the potential for widespread chaos. Egypt’s Abdelatty detailed his government’s active diplomatic efforts, such as a recent Gulf tour, aimed at de-escalating tensions.
