On Friday, leaders from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Jordan, and Egypt will gather in Saudi Arabia for a pivotal meeting. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will greet the leaders in Riyadh for what has been called “an informal brotherly meeting,” according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
The meeting is a continuation of a long-standing custom of frequent informal talks between these countries. According to officials, the gathering will offer a chance to discuss regional cooperation and developments. The agenda for the next Arab summit will be a major point of discussion.
Egypt recently said that on March 4, it will host an urgent Arab conference with a focus on Gaza rehabilitation. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, the president of Egypt, stated that his nation is developing a comprehensive plan to reconstruct the region destroyed by conflicts without forcing its Palestinian inhabitants to leave.
This comes after former US President Donald Trump made a controversial proposal that Gaza be repopulated and turned into a luxury destination. The Arab world, which views the idea as an attempt at forced displacement, has strongly denounced it.
