In a continuation of efforts to keep diplomatic channels open in the Middle East, the foreign ministers of the Islamic Republic of Iran and Egypt held a telephone conversation on Tuesday to exchange views on bilateral relations as well as current regional and international developments.

According to Khabaronline, According to official reports, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Badr Abdelatty, Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, discussed the state of Tehran–Cairo relations and reviewed key political and security issues shaping the region—issues that in recent months have been heavily influenced by rising tensions in the Middle East and broader global geopolitical shifts.

During the call, both sides emphasized the importance of continuing diplomatic consultations aimed at strengthening bilateral ties and enhancing coordination on regional and international matters. Such coordination, according to informed sources, is intended to contribute to reducing tensions and promoting stability and security across the region.

The phone conversation took place at a time when Iran and Egypt, despite the absence of full diplomatic relations, have in recent years sought to expand political dialogue and diplomatic engagement on regional crises. International observers note that this gradual increase in communication could play a meaningful role in shaping emerging power dynamics in the Middle East.
