"The meeting," Palazzo Chigi noted in a message, "focused on bilateral relations, specifically on trade growth prospects and the strengthening of energy collaboration and interconnections between Egypt and Europe via Italy." Another key issue of the discussion was the dangerous ongoing situation in the Middle East, where it was resolved to maintain urgent and concerted diplomatic measures aimed at controlling its future spread and humanitarian repercussions. President Meloni praised President Sisi for "his diplomatic and logistical assistance in deploying Italian humanitarian aid for Gaza at the Egyptian port of Al Arish, as well as for the imminent arrival of the Vulcano ship carrying medical supplies. Italy and Egypt decided to continue working together in a spirit of stronger collaboration to achieve long-term peace in Gaza."
