Ahmed Moustafa writes

Firstly, I would like to thank the Iranian Interests Section in Egypt, represented by Mr. Mohammad Hossein Soltani Fard, Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Cairo, for trusting me and entrusting me with the task of presenting the Iranian National Day reception in Cairo yesterday, Monday, February 12, 2024. It was held for the first time outside the ambassador’s residence and in one of Cairo’s most important hotels – the Fairmont Nile City Cairo Hotel.

Prominent figures attended the National Day ceremony

The beautiful and elegant evening was full of momentum, both in terms of the number of diplomats attending and the diversity of political and media trends. Among the attendees was a representative of the Egyptian Foreign Ministry and former ministers, including the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Mohamed Al-Orabi. Among the activists and public figures is Mr. Hamdeen Sabahi, the former candidate for the Egyptian presidency. Among the most important media figures are Mr. Osama Sharshar, editor-in-chief of Al-Nahar newspaper and website, as well as Essam Shiha – the senior lawyer and one of the most important members of the Egyptian National Council for Human Rights, and Dr. Ahmed Saqr Ashour, professor of administration and president of the Arab Association for Administrative Development, and representatives of the Ministers’ Council and Mr. Ashraf AboAref, editor-in-chief of AlDiplomasy website (in Arabic and English). The ambassadors include the Russian Ambassador, Georgy Borsenko, and other ambassadors from the Arab world, such as the ambassadors of Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Asian and African ambassadors, including the Ambassador of South Korea, the Ambassador of Brunei, the Consul General of Turkey, the Ambassador of Azerbaijan, the Consul of Ghana, and others.

Special media coverage from Iranian and Egyptian channels

There was a special media coverage from both Iranian and Egyptian TV channels, represented by Iranian channels, which conducted important meetings with me and with some of the above-mentioned figures. Their primary focus was on the most important points of Egyptian-Iranian rapprochement at the time of normalization of relations, the Palestinian issue, and the role of Egypt and Iran specifically in this issue, as the two countries are among the most important ones at the helm of Diplomacy and support for the Palestinians and the testimony of the resistance leaders themselves.

The most important thing presented in the interventions of the distinguished figures

The words delivered were very expressive of regional, global, and global conditions – and of course, the Palestinian issue and its developments dominated the majority of the words, whether from the Iranian ambassador or from the public figures who attended – and I tried to link the words from the guest attendees and shorten them and translate them because they were not Arabic speakers.

The most important topics raised in the speeches of Messrs his Excellency the Ambassador, Sabbahi, Sharshar, and Hammad make the Palestinian issue a compass that unites us as an Arab and Islamic world and as people of conscience. And not to allow the Palestinian cause to decline again in light of the massacres that are happening to innocent people in Gaza and Rafah. While not allowing Israel and the West to win. And focus on changing the world to a new multipolar world order again. And exploiting the BRICS Plus opportunity to advance further relations at the level of the south and east. Focusing on the idea of a power triangle (Arab – Turkish – Iranian) or a power square (Egyptian – Saudi – Turkish – Iranian) there is a desire among the Iranian Leader (Mr. Ali Akbar Khamenei) to visit Cairo as soon as possible.

Important notes that must be worked on to take advantage of this occasion

First, there must be immediate normalization of Egyptian-Iranian relations, and let President Erdogan’s visit tomorrow be the starting point, because this trio is terrifying to the West and Israel if this happens, and to conclude several economic agreements that bring together the three countries while we are in the most intense moments of cooperation.

Second, the Camp David Accords must be null and void, because quite simply, the Zionist entity is trying to violate this agreement and America implicitly supports it based on Biden’s recent cowardly and contradictory statements, by what happened in Palestinian Rafah yesterday.

Third, the Egyptian and Iranian sides, and this is by my previous work, must demand that the International Law Association in London, which is one of the most important advisory bodies in the International Court of Justice, the United Nations, and international law, cancel Israel’s membership because Egypt and Iran are long-standing members of the Association.

Fourth, exploiting the Arab and Islamic consensus position of completely boycotting Israel, especially economically and in the field of energy, and isolating it completely, because it is a corrupt entity and this is a decision that must be taken as soon as possible by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. This is the minimum response to the Gaza massacres, with America, Britain, Germany, and France warning of similar action if no appropriate action is taken with Israel.

Fifth, solidarity in an international criminal lawsuit from the Organization of the Islamic Conference combined with the State of South Africa against the war criminals (Netanyahu, Ben Gvir, Biden, Blinken, Kirby, Rishi Sunak, and any Western or Israeli official) who are verbally or actually hostile to our Palestinian brothers throughout this great battle, which is similar to the struggle The people of the Soviet city of Stalingrad facing Nazi aggression during World War II.

Sixth, the attempt to enact an Arab and Islamic law specifically against Arabs and Muslims, and to punish any unfriendly or Western country that deals with any Muslim or Arab in an inappropriate manner – similar to the so-called permissible law (anti-Semitism).

Seventh, an Arab-Islamic platform is established for Arab and Muslim youth across the world to express their issues in a way that serves the future of the Arab and Islamic world, as well as the economy, culture, and scientific research in these two worlds.

Finally, cooperation with friendly countries (Russia, China, ASEAN countries, Africa, and Latin America) with openness in all of the above, especially through the umbrella of BRICS Plus, the Silk Road, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and others such as the African Union, and the special unions for Latin American countries.

To Conclude – we see that we are near a new stage in the region free of the Zionist evil, the root of all the problems and evils of the region, and a complete killing of the so-called American agenda due to the unanimous, humiliating, and horrific fall of the Western agenda.
