Amharc ar fhreagraIn recent weeks I have spoken with a number of Foreign Ministers of member countries of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and the League of Arab States, to discuss the ongoing crisis in Gaza. These have included the Palestinian Foreign Minister, as well as the Foreign Ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Turkiye and Qatar.
Later this week I intend to visit the region, and hope to meet personally with Foreign Minister Shoukry of Egypt and Secretary General Aboul Gheit of the League of Arab States, amongst others.
