This is Egypt

On Monday, the Sharm El-Sheikh summit will convene to crown Egypt’s efforts to establish peace and end the war in Gaza.

from the beginning, the position of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi was clear and unwavering: rejecting pressure in all its forms, refusing to go to USA twice despite invitations and insistence, emphasizing that the issue is not a mere protocolary visit, but a matter of principle.

He insisted that the solution must be forged on the region's own soil and by its people, not in the offices of Washington or the capitals of the West.

Therefore, the Sharm El-Sheikh summit came to prove that Egypt is not run by pressure but by will, and that it is capable of bringing warring parties to one table after months of bloodshed and destruction.

The entire world now listens to the voice of Cairo, the voice of peace that stopped the fire in Gaza, opening the door to a new phase of hope, through Egyptian mediation and calm management by President El-Sisi and the state's institutions.

Simultaneously, Egypt brought joy to the hearts of its people with the national team's qualification for the World Cup, a moment of pure happiness that brought back memories of victory and unity to Egyptians.

Then the Nile flood came this year with its abundant bounty, filling the canals and fields and bringing joy back to the faces of the farmers.

The Nile seemed to be smiling at Egypt and sharing its joys, reminding us that our relationship with it is not just flowing water, but a spirit that has flowed within us for thousands of years.

​In another scene, Egypt raised its name high with the victory of Dr. Khaled El-Enany as the Director-General of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), confirming that its soft power is no less important than its political power, and that it still exports its thought and culture to the world just as it exports messages of peace.

​October this year was not just the memory of the Great Victory of October '73, but a new victory: a victory in politics when Egypt forges peace, a victory in sports when flags unite and cries of joy rise from the cheering fans in the stands, happy with our team's World Cup qualification, a victory in nature when the Nile overflows with bounty, and a victory in culture when Egypt's flag is raised among nations.

October 2025 confirmed to the world that Egypt does not change its principles no matter how circumstances change, and it does not bow to any pressure, because it knows its path, and knows that true peace is not made by the weak.

On Monday from Sharm El-Sheikh, the entire world will see that Egypt, under the leadership of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, is making peace by its own will, imposing respect through its steadfastness, and confirming that whoever possesses independent decision always holds the keys to the future.

This is Egypt...that is not defeated, does not surrender, and does not hesitate. Rather, it always moves forward, making history with a hand of peace and a hand of determination.
