In exclusive remarks to the Jordan News Agency (Petra) on Tuesday, Abdelatty stressed that there is full coordination at the leadership level between President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and His Majesty King Abdullah II, as well as between the two countries’ foreign ministries. He added, “Egypt speaks on behalf of Jordan, and Jordan speaks on behalf of Egypt, which clearly underscores the depth of relations and ongoing coordination.”
The minister emphasized that both countries categorically reject forced displacement schemes, considering such plans a “red line” for Jordan and Egypt that cannot be accepted under any circumstances.
He further highlighted that the close Egyptian-Jordanian coordination at all levels, particularly at the leadership level, has helped change the prevailing narrative in the West regarding the reality of events in Gaza and the West Bank, pointing out that developments in the West Bank are no less dangerous than those in Gaza.
As part of their joint efforts, Abdelatty noted that Egypt and Jordan are continuously working to mobilize political and humanitarian support for the Palestinian cause.
He also affirmed that Egypt and Jordan, in coordination with international partners, are preparing to convene a relief, reconstruction, and early recovery conference for Gaza, with the participation of Arab states and the international community. He stressed that all forms of political and financial support are being mobilized to implement a comprehensive reconstruction plan that ensures a dignified life for the Palestinian people.
