Egypt Welcomes Canada's and Malta's Plans to Recognize Palestinian State
Egypt has welcomed the announcement by Canadian Prime Minister (PM) Mark Carney and Maltese Prime Minister (PM) Robert Abela of their countries' intention to recognize Palestinian state.
Egypt affirmed that this growing international momentum toward recognition constitutes a historic step that contributes to the realization of a Palestinian state, a goal long advocated by Egypt and the Arab nations, in pursuit of restoring the legitimate and inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, according to a statement issued by Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Moreover, Egypt reiterated its call for all countries that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to urgently take this step, in order to stand on the right side of history and support the implementation of the two-state solution, thereby ensuring the establishment of an independent Palestinian state along the June 4, 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Egypt Officially Raises Public Sector Minimum Wages
Taarek Refaat Egypt's Official Gazette has published Decree, signed by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, introducing amendments to the public sector minimum wage framework effective July 1, 2025. The decree updates key provisions of the 2019 wage legislation to reflect new wage thresholds for government employees and workers at public economic authorities. The move comes amid broader economic reforms and cost-of-living concerns, with the government seeking to bolster real incomes across all employment grades in the public sector. New Minimum Monthly Wage: Exceptional 13,500 High 11,250 General Manager 10,250 First Grade 8,500 Second Grade 8,000 Third Grade 7,750 Fourth Grade 7,000 Fifth Grade 7,250 Sixth Grade 7,000 The decree also introduces an updated mechanism for a "complementary wage incentive", ensuring that any employee whose total income falls below the minimum wage threshold for their grade will receive a top-up. The calculation will exclude certain special allowances such as remote-area bonuses, risk allowances, or non-cash benefits, while regular bonuses and collective financial advantages will be averaged into the monthly wage for assessment. This incentive system aims to harmonize wage fairness across ministries and public entities while maintaining eligibility conditions aligned with the Civil Service Law and other relevant public finance legislation. The amendments were adopted following Cabinet approval and a comprehensive legal review, as referenced in the decree's legal preamble, which cites Egypt's Unified Public Finance Law and recent Law, which governs public sector bonuses and incentives. The Egyptian government has incrementally raised the minimum wage in recent years as inflationary pressures and currency fluctuations have affected purchasing power. The current adjustment follows multiple prior increases, with the most recent benchmark set in 2024 at EGP 10,000 for many categories. As of July 20, 2025, more than 3.5 million public sector employees are expected to benefit from the new wage structure, including those in administrative bodies, service agencies, and economic authorities. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
