​During a meeting with the Senate's Human Rights and Social Solidarity Committee, Dr. Badr Abdelatty, Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, revealed that Egypt has established a comprehensive set of "red lines" within its foreign policy to address sensitive regional issues and safeguard national interests.

​The meeting, chaired by Dr. Abdel Hadi El-Qasabi and attended by Deputy Speaker MP Ahmed El-Awady, highlighted Cairo’s strategic stance on several critical fronts.

​Moreover, FM clarified that these red lines include a categorical rejection of the forced displacement of Palestinians and any attempts to partition the Gaza Strip. 

He also emphasized that Egypt maintains a firm position regarding the unity of neighboring Arab states.

​Regarding the ongoing crisis in Sudan, Abdelatty stated that Egypt has drawn a red line concerning the territorial integrity and unity of the Sudanese state. 

Furthermore, he stressed that Cairo is closely monitoring developments to ensure Sudan’s stability and protect its sovereignty.

​Additinally, FM identified any "existential harm" related to water rights as a major red line. 

Moroever, he asserted that the right to water is a fundamental right granted for existence and life, declaring:"Egypt will not tolerate any infringement on its water rights. This file remains a strategic priority for Egyptian foreign policy and is a core component of national security."

​Abdelatty concluded by stating that Egypt manages its foreign files with extreme caution and clarity to ensure the protection of national interests. 

These red lines, he noted, serve as a fixed framework for Egyptian policy toward sensitive regional and international issues, reflecting a commitment to regional peace and stability.
