Egypt is ready to "open a new page" with Iran, with which it hasn’t had full diplomatic relations since 1979, Foreign Minister Nabil el-Arabi said, according to the state-run Middle East News Agency.

"The Egyptian government doesn’t consider Iran to be an enemy state," MENA cited el-Arabi as saying. "We’re opening a new page with all countries, including Iran."
