Global Youth at Nasser Fellowship Voice Support for Palestinian Statehood
Pasant Elzaitony As part of the Fifth Edition of the Gamal Abdel Nasser Fellowship for International Leadership, under the patronage of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and within the framework of the Egypt International Forum, the Ministry of Youth and Sports organized a seminar titled "The Palestinian Cause: Vision and Analysis." The event was moderated by Sherif Gad, Director of Cultural Activities at the Russian Cultural Center, and featured key speakers including Dr. Saeed Abu Ali, former Palestinian Minister of Interior and Assistant Secretary-General of the Arab League and Head of the Palestine and Occupied Arab Territories Sector; Dr. Yasmine Moussa, Legal Affairs Advisor at Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs; and Ms. Sahar Al-Jubouri, Head of UNRWA's Representative Office in Cairo. The seminar was attended by 150 young men and women from 80 countries. In his opening remarks, Sherif Gad expressed optimism for the eventual triumph of the Palestinian cause, despite the difficult current conditions. He emphasized that the continuation of Palestinian resistance and the solidarity shown by youth from 80 different nations reaffirm that the Palestinian cause is far from forgotten. 'The Palestinian people will never disappear like the Native Americans,' he stated passionately. Sherif Gad Dr. Saeed Abu Ali stressed the importance of a comprehensive resolution to the conflict, criticizing both the Arab and international response to the crisis. He condemned the delayed international efforts to halt the ongoing atrocities, pointing out that over 137 countries now recognize the State of Palestine. Dr. Yasmine Moussa affirmed Egypt's historical and emotional connection to the Palestinian cause, stating that it has shaped the political awareness of Egyptian youth. She presented a detailed overview of recent developments in the conflict, highlighting numerous humanitarian violations, and emphasized the significance of international law and judicial organizations in addressing these issues. Ms. Sahar Al-Jubouri elaborated on UNRWA's mission, the challenges it faces, and the daily struggles endured by the Palestinian people from the perspective of the agency. She underlined UNRWA's vital role in supporting every Palestinian refugee and pointed to the absence of a unified international definition of terrorism. This ambiguity, she argued, often casts Palestinian resistance in the role of the perpetrator rather than the victim. In conclusion, Sherif Gad extended his gratitude to the Minister of Youth and Sports for organizing the Nasser Fellowship Forum, and to Dr. Hassan El-Ghazaly, Director of the Nasser International Leadership Fellowship, for the outstanding execution and coordination of the event. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

CAIRO, May 12 (MENA} - Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigration Badr Abdelatty reaffirmed Monday Egypt's full commitment to supporting peace and stability at both the regional and international levels through a responsible diplomatic approach based on de-escalation, dialogue, and peaceful resolutions to conflicts. This came during the Foreign Minister's participation, alongside Ashraf Sobhi, Minister of Youth and Sports, in the opening ceremony of the fifth edition of the "Gamal Abdel Nasser Fellowship for International Leadership." The program is held under the patronage of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, under the theme: 'Egypt and the United Nations: 80 Years of Representing the Global South's Causes,' with the attendance of 150 participants representing 80 countries. Minister Abdelatty welcomed the youth from the Global South participating in the fellowship, stressing that Egypt is always proud to host initiatives that enhance the role of youth and strengthen bridges of cooperation and mutual understanding between nations. He outlined the fundamental principles underpinning Egypt's foreign policy, noting that it stems from a balanced vision and clear strategy established by President Sisi since 2014. The minister highlighted Egypt's firm belief in the importance of a multilateral system as the foundation of a fair and balanced international order. He emphasized the indispensable role of the United Nations as a platform that reflects the collective will of the international community, highlighting Egypt's active participation in UN institutions. He reiterated Egypt's full commitment to working towards reforming the international system, including the structure of the global financial system and the UN Security Council. He noted that these institutions, in their current form, do not fully reflect the interests of the Global South or fairly address the aspirations of its people for justice and balanced representation. In a related context, Minister Abdelatty addressed the priorities of Egypt's foreign policy in the field of sustainable development, pointing out that 'Egypt Vision 2030' is a comprehensive strategic framework based on principles of social justice and empowerment, aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. He affirmed Egypt's leading role in climate change issues, especially after hosting the COP27 Climate Summit, and the subsequent initiatives aimed at supporting green transition and financing climate projects in developing countries, particularly in Africa. The Minister also highlighted the importance of digital transformation and artificial intelligence as key drivers of future development, stressing that Egypt continues to utilize these tools in line with its national interests and development goals. Minister Abdelatty reviewed Egypt's stance on key regional issues, noting that the region is witnessing alarming developments, especially as the foundational principles of the international system are increasingly being questioned. He addressed Israel's continued violations of the core principles of international law and international humanitarian law, as well as its repeated breaches of the UN Charter. He reiterated Egypt's condemnation of using starvation as a weapon of collective punishment against the Palestinian people, warning that such actions create an extremely dangerous international environment that threatens global peace and stability, and requires urgent and serious international action to restore respect for the rule of law and immediately halt these violations. He called for greater solidarity among countries of the Global South in the face of escalating challenges that threaten international peace and security. He emphasized that achieving a fairer and more stable global system begins with a full commitment to the principles of international law and the UN Charter, and a rejection of practices that impose will through force or undermine national sovereignty. The foreign minister said that the current moment requires the Global South to unite in defense of shared rights and interests, and to build a global order that respects national sovereignty and is based on justice, equality, and cooperation.
