Leaders of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations met with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in Cairo today. The two-hour meeting covered a wide range of domestic and international issues, including U.S.-Egyptian and Israeli-Egyptian relations, regional threats, especially those posed by terrorist organizations and their supporters, and Iran post-JCPOA.
The Jewish leaders said that they had an open and very productive discussion and that they were impressed by the President’s analysis on a wide variety of issues. The Conference of Presidents’ delegation arrived from Turkey and will soon head to Israel for its annual Leadership Conference. The leaders said, “We came away with a greater understanding of the challenges and opportunities and how we can play a constructive role in addressing them and fostering international cooperation.”
