Egypt’s president and Jordan’s king hold talks ahead of Palestinian summit

Jordan's King Abdullah II visited Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi on Monday. The two leaders also held a meeting. 

According to Ahmed Fahmy, a spokesman for the Egyptian presidency, the Egyptian president and the monarch talked about a variety of topics and expressed their appreciation for the exemplary relationship between the two countries.

During the meeting, they also shared their hopes for improving relations in ways that benefit their nations and people. They also called for a tripartite cooperation mechanism with Iraq, particularly at the economic and commercial levels, and discussed a number of regional and international issues of mutual concern.

The two leaders also discussed Palestinian developments and agreed to step up efforts by their respective countries to provide full support to people in Palestine and "work to revive the peace process" in order to achieve a comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue.

King Abdullah also congratulated Egypt and the Egyptian President for hosting the tripartite summit, and the two leaders then met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

According to Fahmy, during a tripartite meeting, the leaders discussed "the development of the Palestinian cause" and affirmed support for a "two-state solution" to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Their meeting came prior to a trilateral conference between Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine that day in the northwest city of New Alamein on the North Coast. Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine discussed the most recent advancements in the Palestinian cause.

The Israeli–Palestinian conflict has become an issue for the world. Earlier this month, an 18-year-old Palestinian was killed by Israeli troops during a raid in the occupied West Bank. According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, Mahmoud Abu Sa’an was shot in the head by Israeli forces. 

However, the Israeli military said that the officers shot at suspects who fired and hurled bombs and stones at Israeli forces.

Sky Care: How the UAE’s First Hospital Vertiport is Redefining Emergency Response

  Imagine a critical patient, a time-sensitive organ for transplant, or a specialist medical team needed across a bustling city. On the ground, traffic is a formidable adversary, where every minute lost can alter outcomes. Now, imagine that same journey taking minutes instead of an hour, not by navigating the roads, but by soaring gracefully above them. This is not a scene from a sci-fi film; it is the new reality in the United Arab Emirates. In a landmark move that solidifies its position on the global stage of innovation, the UAE has officially launched the nation’s — and the region’s — first hospital-based vertiport at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi. This isn’t just a helipad with a new name. It is the cornerstone of a fully integrated, city-wide advanced air mobility (AAM) ecosystem, marking a profound convergence of cutting-edge aviation, AI-driven healthcare, and sustainable infrastructure. The Launch of a Lifesaving Corridor The project is a powerful collaboration between aviati...

Three Houses, One Vision – How the UAE’s Abrahamic Family House is Redefining Inter-Faith Dialogue

  When you step onto the stone-plinth of the Abrahamic Family House on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, you are not just visiting a building. You are entering a bold statement: a mosque, a church and a synagogue standing side-by-side, equal in size and purpose, sharing common ground while respecting their separate faiths. A landmark of coexistence In early 2023 the UAE inaugurated this pioneering complex, inviting worshippers and visitors alike. The architecture — designed to give each of the three faith-homes the same external dimensions and to signal equality — allows each to express its own traditions while remaining visibly part of a unified vision. More than 200 nationalities live in the UAE, which means the project reflects a multicultural reality in which multiple faiths and identities coexist daily. Islam’s role in the vision For Muslim-majority audiences in the Gulf, the Abrahamic Family House sends a resonant message: Islam does not fear dialogue — it embraces it. The m...

The World's New Safe Harbour? Why Global Capital is Flowing to the UAE's Shores

  As storm clouds gather over the global economy, investors are searching for a safe harbour. Their compasses, increasingly, are pointing towards the Arabian Gulf. The International Monetary Fund’s recent endorsement of the UAE—projecting a rise to 4.8% GDP growth in 2025—is a powerful signal that this nation has transcended its regional role to become a global player of immense strategic importance. This isn't just growth; it's a geopolitical realignment, positioning the UAE as a stable, connected, and opportunistic hub in a fractured world. For European partners, the UAE’s appeal is multifaceted. Its rapid ascent as a regulated hub for virtual assets and fintech provides a perfect bridge for European digital finance initiatives seeking a forward-looking testing ground. Simultaneously, the UAE’s ambitious climate agenda, crystallized in its pioneering Climate Law and legacy of hosting COP28, creates a powerful synergy with the European Green Deal and the continent's massiv...
