'Muslims to gain from Iran-Egypt ties'
Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:8AM
Head of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu
The head of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) has hailed the enhancement of ties between Iran and Egypt, saying the Muslim world will benefit from the thaw in Tehran-Cairo relations.
OIC Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu told reporters in Cairo that the improvement of relations between the two Muslim nations will lead to further regional stability, Fars news agency reported on Monday.
"All the Muslim nations (Ummah) realize that good relations between Iran and Egypt will benefit all the Muslims and pave the way for Islamic unity," Ihsanoglu noted.
The OIC chief underscored the significance of the two countries in the Middle East and attached special importance to the cooperation between Tehran and Cairo.
He further said that such amity will entail peace and eliminate difference, encouraging Muslims to converge.
His comments come on the heels of recent diplomatic efforts to relaunch Iran-Egypt ties following the downfall of ex-Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak by the February revolution in the North African country.
The post-revolution Egypt looks poised to turn a new page in its relations with the Islamic Republic as Egyptian foreign minister said his country will witness a new phase in its ties with Iran.
Iran severed ties with Egypt after Cairo signed the 1978 Camp David Accords with the Israeli regime and offered asylum to Iran's deposed monarch Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
