Naftali Bennett met Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in Sharm El Sheikh.
It is the first official visit by an Israeli prime minister to Egypt in more than a decade.
Naftali Bennett’s trip to the Red Sea resort of Sharm El Sheikh signals a warming in relations between the two countries.
They signed a peace treaty in 1979, but the relationship cooled over the years.
Bennett said his meeting with President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has created a foundation for deep ties in the future.
The two also discussed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Egypt said ways to revive the peace process in the Middle East were high on the agenda.
But beyond their countries’ ties, what can el-Sisi offer on regional issues?
