Arab League Secretary-General Nabil Fahmy warned that the region is approaching a dangerous turning point due to the Palestinian deadlock and escalating Gulf tensions, and urged current President Trump to rein in Israeli policies toward Palestinians to protect the Sharm El-Sheikh peace initiative. He called on the United States to curb the extremist ambitions of the Israeli government and to stop violations in East Jerusalem and settlement expansion that threaten a two-state path. Fahmy highlighted Gaza casualties and West Bank violence as part of a broader pattern that risks regional stability, urging a halt to settler attacks and a return to diplomacy. He pressed for advancing the Gaza peace plan’s next phase, including a ceasefire, prisoner exchange, phased Israeli withdrawal, and a transitional Palestinian administration, along with Gaza reconstruction. The secretary-general also urged renewed US-Iran negotiations, de-escalation in Gulf security concerns, and the reopening of secure maritime routes, emphasizing respect for Arab sovereignty. Across repeated statements, Fahmy underscored that all parties bear responsibility for regional security and stability and that U.S. leadership is essential to prevent further crises.
