The Egyptian position on the Russian-Ukrainian war

Abstract

The Egyptian position on the Russian-Ukrainian war has its motives, and there are intertwined relations at multiple levels that link Egypt with Russia and the United States of America. This is why Egypt adopted a balanced position towards the Russian-Ukrainian war, as it stressed the importance of dialogue and diplomacy to resolve the conflict, and focused on the issue of ensuring food security. And energy. This is because the war had a clear impact on the global economy.
This is due to the importance of Russian exports and its trade relations with various regions of the Middle East and North Africa, especially in the field of energy on the one hand, and the importance of Ukrainian exports with regard to basic materials such as wheat on the other hand. 
  Food security is one of the most dangerous effects of the Russian-Ukrainian war on Egypt, as Russia and Ukraine are among the largest exporters of wheat and corn in the world, which has led to a shortage of these basic commodities and a significant rise in their prices.
