Iranian and Egyptian FMS met in Gambia today

In a significant diplomatic engagement, the Foreign Ministers of Iran and Egypt convened in the Gambian capital of Banjul. This meeting, held ahead of the 15th Heads of State and Government Summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), marks a continued effort to enhance dialogue and cooperation between Tehran and Cairo.

The bilateral talks between Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and his Egyptian counterpart Sameh Shoukry come at a crucial time, following increased interactions since the conflict in Gaza. These discussions are a testament to the growing relationship between the two nations, which was further solidified by a meeting between Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi in Riyadh last year.

The summit is expected to conclude with a final communique that will encapsulate the OIC's stance on various matters, alongside resolutions on Palestine and the Banjul Declaration.
