Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi rejected any threat to Egypt's Nile water rights, according to Anadolu Agency, reaffirming Cairo's long-standing position on the issue.
In the same remarks, Sisi condemned attempts to displace Palestinians, as well as attacks on Arab states, while also stressing the importance of freedom of navigation in the region's waterways.
Recurring themes
Sisi's comments touch on several recurring themes in Egyptian foreign policy: the protection of the country's share of Nile waters amid ongoing regional disputes over the river, opposition to any displacement of Palestinians from their land, and support for the sovereignty of Arab states against external attacks.
The Egyptian president did not single out a specific country or incident in the remarks reported by Anadolu Agency, framing his comments instead as a broader statement of Egypt's foreign policy priorities.
