Egypt's stance on the Russo-Ukraine War

[edit]

In June 2023, a delegation from Africa, including representatives from Egypt, visited Ukraine and Russia with a call for peace.[1] Egypt has maintained a generally neutral stance due to the "rational analysis of the consequences of the war" and has emphasized clarity on the ramifications of conflict. According to The State Information Service, Egypt has endorsed efforts aimed at stopping the war, as developing countries, including Egypt, remain the most affected in terms of food and energy security.[2]

On November 11, 2022, Egypt sent 40,000 rockets to Ukraine which were meant to go to Russia.[3]
