US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have unveiled a new peace plan aimed at ending the conflict in the Gaza Strip. The plan has drawn praise from multiple Middle Eastern and European leaders, who view it as a constructive step towards regional peace. However, observers note that the reactions of Hamas and Israel’s internal political dynamics could influence its implementation.
Key Elements of the Plan:
Immediate Ceasefire and Hostage Release: The plan calls for an immediate end to hostilities and requests Hamas to release 20 Israeli hostages, including the bodies of those killed, within 72 hours.
Disengagement: Israeli forces would withdraw from Gaza once Hamas is disarmed.
Governance of Gaza: A neutral, non-political Palestinian committee will oversee Gaza, under a "Peace Council" led by Trump, with members including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Future Palestinian State: The plan opens avenues for the potential establishment of a Palestinian state in the future.
Global Responses:
Palestinian Authority: The Palestinian Authority has welcomed the initiative, calling it a sincere and determined effort.
Arab Countries: Officials from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia, and Pakistan have expressed support for diplomatic efforts to bring stability to Gaza.
European Union: European Council President Antonio Guterres emphasized the importance of seizing the opportunity to advance peace.
Hamas and Israeli Perspectives:
Hamas is reviewing the plan but has emphasized that it will not release hostages without guarantees on its key demands.
Prime Minister Netanyahu supports the initiative but faces internal political pressure from coalition partners. Finance Minister Betzalel Smotrich has outlined conditions regarding Palestinian participation in Gaza governance.
While the plan has been welcomed internationally, its success will depend on negotiations between all parties and Israel’s internal political consensus. The initiative reflects ongoing efforts to achieve a stable and lasting peace in the region.
