The friction in Iran-Egypt ties can be traced to 1979, immediately after the Iranian Revolution, when Egypt became the first Arab state to recognize Israel and signed the Camp David Accords. The Egyptian government's decision to grant refuge to deposed Iranian monarch Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and the Iranian government's move to name a street after former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat's assassin further deteriorated relations. After Abdel Fattah el-Sisi rose to power in 2014, the two countries warmed again and diplomatic talks were reactivated but the underlying tensions remained, according to Mehdi Mohammadi, a political historian and analyst. ”Both countries extended their support to Bashar al-Assad in Syria when other regional countries were fiercely opposed to him, but the breakdown in Iran-Saudi ties in 2016 put fresh hurdles in the full restoration of Tehran-Cairo ties,” he told Anadolu. The revival of diplomatic ties between Iran and Saudi Arabia following two years of marathon negotiations facilitated by Iraq and Oman presented a new opportunity for Tehran and Cairo. Haitham’s visit to Iran came one week after he held talks with el-Sisi in Cairo with Iran-Egypt normalization on the agenda. Ibrahimi said the visiting official was carrying a message from the Egyptian government for Iran in line with Muscat's traditional role as a mediator in disputes between regional countries. ”Omani Sultan's visit to Egypt came immediately after the Arab League summit in Jeddah, which saw the participation of top Arab leaders, implying that the rapprochement between Tehran and Cairo has the stamp of approval from Egypt's Arab allies,” he said. Now speculation is rife that Iran and Egypt could exchange ambassadors in the near future, possibly before the UN General Assembly in New York in September. He welcomed Oman's mediation efforts aimed at potential rapprochement between Tehran and Cairo, asserting that Iran has ”no problem in this regard.” The Iranian leader's comments, according to his website, came in response to Haitham high stakes casino ”conveying Egypt's willingness for the resumption of ties with Iran.” Khamenei also had a word of praise for the Raisi administration's neighborhood-centric foreign policy, which has paved the way for normalization between Iran and its Persian Gulf neighbors. While the Iran-Egypt detente figured high on the sultan's agenda during the two-day visit, other critical issues also came up for discussion, according to sources and media reports. Oman has earned the reputation of being an effective mediator in regional disputes and conflicts, which was evident in Iran-Saudi tension-easing talks as well as Syria's return to the Arab League and ongoing talks between Riyadh and the Houthi group in Yemen. The Ayatollah, in his meeting with the sultan, appreciated Muscat's role in facilitating Iran and Saudi Arabia talks that resulted in the resumption of diplomacy after seven years of friction. Haitham also likely carried messages from the US to Iran on salvaging the 2015 nuclear deal through dialogue that remains stalled since last August, as previously reported by Anadolu. A report Wednesday in Axios said White House Middle East adviser Brett McGurk traveled to Oman last month for discussions with officials on a possible diplomatic outreach to Iran.
