Egypt urges Iran to show flexibility and restraint to avoid escalation

Egypt ·

Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty stressed in a phone call with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi the need for all parties to show flexibility and restraint. He called for intensified efforts and contacts to reach a political way out of the crisis and prevent military escalation, according to the ministry's statement.

Tensions between the United States and Iran have raised fears of a wider regional conflict, and Egypt, a major Arab state, has called for political solutions to prevent it.
