CAIRO: Egypt’s Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and Poland’s Andrzej Duda addressed the Russia-Ukraine crisis and its international ramifications.

“This crisis has cast a shadow over the global economy and threatens the food security of various countries around the world,” El-Sisi said during a press conference with Duda in Cairo.

Egypt’s stance is based on “”addressing all means leading to calm and a peaceful solution to the conflict, and exerting all efforts to achieve this, whether at the bilateral, regional or international levels,” according to El-Sisi.

“The importance of finding alternatives and solutions to spare people the negative effects of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis.” he said.

El-Sisi and Duda also talked about “promoting citizenship rights and religious freedoms, combating extremism; national efforts to maintain regional and international security and stability; and supporting efforts to counter terrorism at the international level.”

“The talks also touched on a number of Middle East issues, top of which is the Palestinian issue, which is the core issue in the region, where the importance of the two-state solution and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital were emphasised,” El-Sisi continued.

He and Duda watched the signing of memoranda of cooperation and agreements between their two countries.

Duda also conducted meetings with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, and attended a Polish-Egyptian business roundtable and a meeting of the Polish community in Cairo.
