In 2010, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas declared support for the barrier, adding: “It is the Egyptians’ sovereign right in their own country. Legitimate supplies should be brought through the legal crossings.”
pretty much this, it is still Egypt’s prerogative, why should they be made to open a border for a walled city when their host state doesn’t?
Egypt should be in the headlines for their fortified borders, and lack of support.
I don’t blame Egypt for not wanting to get involved directly
They’re as complicit as Iran: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egypt–Gaza_barrier
