Egyptian Parliament will not be affected by Friday's opposing protests in regard to determining the sovereignty over the Red Sea islands of Tiran and Sanafir, MP Margaret Azer said Saturday, Al-Bawaba News reported. A number MPs have demanded that the government present the agreements regarding the demarcation of the maritime border with Saudi Arabia to the parliament to study the status of the two controversial islands. She added that the parliament will deal with this issue neutrally, and it will review all related maps and documents of the Egyptian-Saudi maritime borders. Azer has announced earlier that "the presidential decree issued in 1990 on the two Red Sea islands of Tiran and Sanafir is clear that they are part of Saudi Arabia's territory." "The deal... will be an implementation of this decree, and this does not require a national referendum," she argued. Tiran and Sanafir islands lie at the southern entrance of the Gulf of Aqaba in the northern part of the Red Sea. Egypt's President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi has signed an agreement with Saudi monarch Salman bin Abdel Aziz, during his visit to Cairo, to demarcate the joint maritime border, announcing that Egypt will hand Saudi Arabia two Red Sea islands under Egyptian control, which caused widespread controversy in Egypt.
