United States President Donald Trump on Sunday stated that there is no need to modify Gaza peace plan, as all parties involved are already in agreement. During a conversation with reporters before departing the White House, President Trump was asked whether there would be any changes to the Gaza peace plan. He responded that the details would be finalised within a couple of days and the nitty gritty will be fixed.
Trump emphasised that negotiations are currently taking place and everybody has pretty much agreed to the plan. He called Hamas’ plan “amazing” and asserted that peace would usher in the Middle East after a very long time. Trump stressed that the deal is great for everybody including Israel, Arab and Muslim countries and the hostages would be released immediately.
“We have very little, we don’t need flexibility because everybody’s pretty much agreed to it, but there’ll always be some changes. But the Hamas plan, I tell you, it’s amazing. You’re going to have peace, if you think about it, peace in the Middle East for the first time in, they say really 3,000 years. So, I’m very honoured to be a big part of that. They’ve been fighting for a plan for years. We get the hostages back almost immediately. Negotiations are going on right now. Will probably take a couple of days and people are very happy about it. It’s a great deal for Israel and it’s a great deal for everybody. It’s a great deal for the entire Arab world, Muslim world,” Trump said.
In a post on X, the White House stated, “There have been very positive discussions with Hamas, and countries from all over the World (Arab, Muslim, and everyone else) this weekend, to release the Hostages, end the War in Gaza but, more importantly, finally have long sought PEACE in the Middle East.”
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed hope that hostages could be released during the Sukkot holiday, which begins on Monday evening and lasts for a week. The holiday is followed immediately by Simhat Torah, which coincides with the anniversary of Hamas’s October 7 attack on the Hebrew calendar, as reported by The Times of Israel.
