Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi announced on Saturday that Egypt is prepared to take any necessary action to protect Saudi Arabia, emphasizing that the national security of both nations and the broader Gulf region is inseparably interconnected.
Speaking during the Egyptian Military Academy’s graduation ceremony in the New Capital, El-Sisi stated that he has called for an emergency parliamentary session to officially authorize defensive military actions if requested by Riyadh.
The president’s remarks reinforce his ongoing warnings regarding regional security and maritime stability in the Red Sea amid escalating geopolitical tensions.
El-Sisi reiterated that any potential intervention or parliamentary authorization remains strictly conditional upon an official request from the Saudi leadership, underscoring Cairo’s unwavering commitment to regional stability and the sovereign protection of its allies.
