UAE And Other Nations Support Hamas' Steps On Trump's Proposal To End Gaza Conflict

The Foreign Ministers from several countries, including the UAE, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Egypt, have expressed approval of Hamas's response to U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal. This plan aims to end the conflict in Gaza by releasing all hostages and starting negotiations on how to implement these measures.

They also praised President Trump's request for Israel to halt bombings and begin executing the exchange agreement. The ministers appreciated his dedication to fostering peace in the region. They believe these actions present a genuine chance for a lasting ceasefire and addressing the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.

The ministers reiterated their commitment to supporting efforts that aim to end the war in Gaza immediately. They seek a comprehensive agreement that ensures unrestricted humanitarian aid delivery, prevents Palestinian displacement, and protects civilian safety. They also call for the release of hostages and the return of the Palestinian Authority to Gaza.

Hamas's announcement about its willingness to transfer Gaza's administration to a transitional committee of independent technocrats was welcomed by the ministers. They stressed the importance of promptly starting talks to agree on how to implement this proposal and address all related issues.

The ministers emphasised unifying Gaza with the West Bank and establishing a security mechanism that ensures everyone's safety. This approach aims for Israel's complete withdrawal from Gaza and its reconstruction. It also paves the way for a fair peace based on a two-state solution.

They remain committed to working towards implementing this proposal effectively. Their goal is not only ending hostilities but also achieving an agreement that secures humanitarian aid access without restrictions.

This collective effort underscores their dedication to resolving conflicts peacefully while ensuring stability and security for all parties involved in this complex situation.
