Israeli PM Bennett and Egypt President Sisi discuss security cooperation and peace process between Israel and Palestine in their meeting in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Egypt's President Abdel Fattah el Sisi discussed among other issues"efforts to revive the peace process" between Israel and Palestine.
Sisi hosted Bennett in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh where they discussed "efforts to revive the peace process" between the Israelis and Palestinians, presidential spokesman Bassam Radi said. Egypt regularly receives leaders of Hamas as well as of its political rival the Palestinian Authority led by Mahmud Abbas, while maintaining strong diplomatic, security and economic ties with Israel.
Monday's talks mark "an important step in light of the growing security and economic relations between the two countries, and their mutual concern over the situation in Gaza", Cairo-based analyst Nael Shama said. The last meeting between an Egyptian president and an Israeli premier dates back to January 2011 when Hosni Mubarak received Netanyahu, weeks before Mubarak was toppled in a popular revolution.
