Egypt always focused on regional stability, Iran’s remarks raise questions -MFA

Iran’s statements on Egypt’s role in the region are raising questions and concerns, Foreign Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Ahmed Abu Zeid said. Egypt has always seen regional stability as the cornerstone of its foreign policy and always called for respecting its neighbours’ rights and sovereignty. Abu Zeid’s remarks came after Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasim said that Egypt did not play its role in securing regional stability well enough, calling Cairo’s policies “wrong,” according to Al Arabiya.
