Abdelatty said he briefed Araghchi on Egypt's continued efforts, in cooperation with Qatar and the US, to stop the Israeli aggression on Gaza and allow full access of humanitarian aid to address the existing humanitarian catastrophe in the Palestinian enclave.

The top Egyptian diplomat indicated that his discussions with the Iranian minister took up the ongoing indirect talks between Iran and the US over the Iranian nuclear program, where Abdelatty affirmed Egypt's full backing of those talks that provide an opportunity for de-escalation and preventing the situation from blowing up in the region.

The foreign minister emphasized Egypt's keenness on the full implementation of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons by all countries without exception. (MORE)
