Under the auspices of Professor Dr. Abdelaziz Konsowa, President of Alexandria University, Dr. Ahmed Wahban, Dean of the Faculty of Economic Studies and Political Science, inaugurated the symposium organized by the Faculty in cooperation with the Economics and Political Science Committee of the Supreme Council of Culture, entitled: “Paths of the Palestinian Issue in Light of the New Changes,” in which several professors of economics and political science from various Egyptian universities and institutes attended, as well as professors, faculty members, supporting staff, and students from both the departments of economics and political science.
The participants in the symposium praised the Palestinian people and the steadfastness of the people of Gaza in the face of the Zionist entity. Discussions demonstrated the impact of the Gaza War on regional security circles, the most prominent factors driving Egyptian foreign policy towards supporting the Palestinian issue, the components of the Egyptian position with regard to the Palestinian issue, and the strategic and economic importance of Gaza for Israel. Participants stressed the inevitability of the influence of political stability over economic stability, and that the solution to the Palestinian issue lies in cooperation and integration between the countries of the Arab world and Islamic countries, as well as the use of economic and political mechanisms to confront the colonial plague that Israel represents.
The symposium ended with some interventions by the students and attendees, which were answered by the lecturers.
