Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken met with Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty today in Al Alamein.
The Secretary and the Foreign Minister agreed to hold a strategic dialogue to further strengthen the bilateral partnership and increase people-to-people ties in areas such as culture, healthcare, and education.
The Secretary thanked the Foreign Minister for Egypt’s sustained efforts to finalize a ceasefire deal in Gaza that would secure the release of all hostages, surge humanitarian assistance, and create a path for broader regional stability.  They also discussed other regional issues and priorities relevant to our bilateral relationship.
The Secretary and the Foreign Minister also agreed to continue close coordination on ending the Sudan conflict, and the need for the Sudanese Armed Forces to join negotiations in Switzerland.
