Egypt balances on Gaza knife’s edge
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, pressured by the United States and Israel, could make a move as bold as his predecessor, Anwar Sadat, and UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed did in when they recognised Israel.
Only this time, Mr. Al-Sisi would be going out on a limb in a far more emotionally charged environment after more than two years of Israeli destruction of Gaza and the killing of 70,000 Palestinians.
US President Donald Trump and Israel Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu are pushing for a meeting of the Egyptian and Israeli leaders when they travel to the United States this month for separate talks with the US president.
