The Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy arrived on Monday from Amman and said he was carrying a letter from Egypt’s government, thanking the Palestinian Authority and Abbas. “I came to Palestine to express our position and full support for the rights of the Palestinian people, and Egypt continues its support in spite of what it is going through,” he added. Fahmy arrived on his first visit to Ramallah from Amman on a Jordanian army helicopter for a short visit. He also expressed support for the recently relaunched peace negotiations with Israel, but said Israeli settlement activity and an Israeli arrest raid in the West Bank jeopardized “chances for the success of the negotiations.” “The Palestinian cause is a priority for Egypt and the Arab world and we will never change that,” he said.
