Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said at an emergency meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation that Cairo will not allow the "illusions" about "Greater Israel" to come true, Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said. The minister added that such ideas will only fuel the conflict, expand its scale and destroy the prospects for peaceful coexistence of the peoples of the Middle East. Earlier in August, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was "on a historical and spiritual mission" and emotionally connected to the vision of "Greater Israel."

Egypt Will Not Allow Implementation of ‘Illusions’ About ‘Greater Israel,’ FM Says
CAIRO (Sputnik) - The "Greater Israel" concept envisages expanding the country's territory by taking in parts of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt, as well as all Palestinian territories, including the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said at an emergency meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation that Cairo will not allow the "illusions" about "Greater Israel" to come true, Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said.
"Minister Abdelatty affirmed Egypt’s absolute rejection of recent Israeli statements concerning the illusions of what’s called "Greater Israel," which reflect nothing but arrogance of power. He outlined that Egypt will neither accept nor permit the implementation of such notions," the ministry said in a statement on Monday.
The minister added that such ideas will only fuel the conflict, expand its scale and destroy the prospects for peaceful coexistence of the peoples of the Middle East.
Earlier in August, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was "on a historical and spiritual mission" and emotionally connected to the vision of "Greater Israel."
