埃及总统阿卜杜勒-法塔赫·塞西周二敦促美国和伊朗在寻求解决方案时表现出灵活性，警告称重燃战火可能将该地区拖入更广泛的冲突，后果将是“灾难性”的。
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi urged the United States and Iran on Tuesday to show flexibility in seeking a settlement, warning that renewed fighting could draw the region into a wider conflict with “catastrophic” consequences.
在开罗与斯洛文尼亚总统娜塔莎·皮尔茨·穆萨尔举行的联合记者会上，塞西呼吁达成一项回应双方主要诉求和关切的协议。他敦促各方在“为时已晚”之前寻求对话，警告称重燃军事行动可能给该地区乃至更广泛地区带来严重的人道主义和经济后果。
Speaking at a joint press conference in Cairo with Slovenian President Natasa Pirc Musar, Sisi called for a deal that addressed each side’s main demands and concerns. He urged the parties to pursue dialogue “before it is too late,” warning that renewed military operations could have severe humanitarian and economic consequences across the region and beyond.
塞西将美国总统唐纳德·特朗普描述为“和平之人”，并表示有信心特朗普会给予调解人所需的支持以达成协议。他承诺埃及将与地区和国际伙伴合作，缓和局势并帮助确保和平解决。
Sisi described US President Donald Trump as a “man of peace” and said he was confident Trump would give mediators the support they needed to reach a deal. He pledged that Egypt would work with regional and international partners to ease tensions and help secure a peaceful settlement.

塞西的言论发表之际，卡塔尔正继续在华盛顿和德黑兰之间进行调解，背景是围绕美国海上封锁和霍尔木兹海峡安全的紧张局势。伊朗周一表示，仍在通过调解人与美国交换信息，重新开放海峡取决于华盛顿结束封锁。
Sisi’s remarks came as Qatar continued to mediate between Washington and Tehran amid tensions over the US naval blockade and security in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran said Monday it was still exchanging messages with the US through mediators and that reopening the strait depended on Washington ending the blockade.
