Egypt will not be involved in the Palestinian displacement, an “act of injustice” that would threaten Egypt’s security, President Abdel Fatah al -Sisi said today in his first public response to US President Donald Trump’s appeal to Cairo. Gaza Strip.

Speaking at a press conference in Cairo with Kenya President William Ruto visiting the country, Sisi said Egypt would work with Trump to achieve peace between Israel and the Palestinians at the base of the two states.

“As for what is said about Palestinian displacement, it can never be tolerated or allowed because of its influence on Egyptian national security“, Sisi said.

“The expulsion or displacement of the Palestinian people is an injustice in which we cannot participate“

Trump said on Saturday that Egypt and Jordan should be accepted by Palestinians from Gaza, which he compared with a “demolition construction site” after 15 months of Israeli bombings that made their homeless more than 2.3 million.

Sisi said that if he asked the Egyptians about Trump’s proposal, they would go to the streets against the Palestinian displacement.

“The solution of the two states is a historical right that cannot be bypassed“Sisi said, adding that Trump” is capable of achieving this goal for a fair and permanent peace in the Middle East. “

Any proposal for Palestinians to leave Gaza, an area they want to be part of an independent state, is anathema for the Palestinian leadership for whole generations and has been repeatedly rejected by neighboring Arab states after the Gaza war began in Gaza in October 2023. .

There are already millions of Palestinians in Jordan, and tens of thousands of Palestinians live in Egypt. The Egyptian and Jordan Foreign Ministries have rejected Trump’s proposal.

Trump said earlier that he would talk to Sisi over the weekend, but instead, US Secretary of State Marko Ruby spoke with his Egyptian counterpart about Gaza without mentioning Trump’s plan.
