With no end in sight to the ongoing conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran, Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has made an appeal to his American counterpart Donald Trump.
Speaking at a press conference with Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides, Sisi urged Trump to help end the conflict in West Asia, adding that only he can “stop the war."
“I say to President Trump: no one will be able to stop the war in our region, in the Gulf... Please, help us to stop the war, you are capable of it,” said Sisi in his joint remarks to the press in Cairo.
Egypt is one of the countries helping negotiate between Washington and Tehran, along with Pakistan and Turkey. Cairo was also one of the several Muslim-majority countries whose foreign ministers took part in talks in Pakistan on Sunday.
“The consequences of wars have always been loss, destruction and damage. No one gets out happy or a winner. I hope that we all work as much as we can to stop these crises,” Sisi added further.
