PARIS — As part of the ongoing diplomatic efforts mandated by the Extraordinary Joint Arab-Islamic Summit on the developments in Gaza, a delegation from the Arab Ministerial Committee held high-level talks in Paris on Friday with French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Noël Barrot.

The meeting was led by Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan, and included Jordan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi and Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigration Dr. Badr Abdelatty.

The discussions took place at the French Foreign Ministry headquarters in the capital.

Talks focused on intensifying international efforts to end the war in Gaza and ensure the unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclave.

The ministers also addressed the need for joint action to halt the ongoing violations committed by Israeli occupation forces against the Palestinian people and territories—acts deemed to contravene international law and humanitarian conventions.

The delegations reaffirmed their shared commitment to advancing a just and lasting peace in the region, emphasizing the need for the implementation of the two-state solution in accordance with relevant international resolutions and legal frameworks.

Preparations for the upcoming high-level international conference on the two-state solution were also discussed.

The conference, co-hosted by Saudi Arabia and France, is scheduled to take place in June at the United Nations headquarters in New York.
