Donald Trump, the President of the United States, and Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, meet to talk about a 21-point plan to stop the war in Gaza. As the world pushes for a truce in Gaza, they are meeting. Last week, the UN General Assembly was mostly about the war in Gaza and the Palestinian statehood. Netanyahu warned the UN that Israel will “finish the job” against Hamas in Gaza and refused to recognize Palestinian statehood. Iran has put to death a man who was thought to be one of Israel’s best spies.
No questions are allowed at the end of the Trump-Netanyahu news conference.
As the news conference drew to an end, US President Donald Trump stated he wouldn’t accept questions on Monday’s developments.
Then he asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu whether he would want to answer a question from a “friendly” Israeli journalist.
But Netanyahu said he would follow Trump’s gut and not answer any questions.
Netanyahu said that if Hamas doesn’t accept a peace accord, Israel would “finish” them.
Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, indicated that under a US-backed peace deal, Israel would “retain security responsibility” over Gaza.
Netanyahu stood next to Trump and in front of the world’s media and declared that if Hamas didn’t accept the bargain Trump offered, Israel would “finish the job” of destroying the group.
Netanyahu added, “Hamas will be disarmed.” “Gaza will be free of weapons. Israel will be in charge of security, including a security perimeter, for the time being. Finally, Gaza will have a peaceful, civilian government that is not ruled by Hamas or the Palestinian Authority.
“If Hamas doesn’t like your plan, Mr. President, or if they say they do but then do everything they can to stop it, then Israel will finish the job on its own.” Netanyahu said, “This can be done the easy way or the hard way, but it will be done.”
Donald Trump, the president of the United States, told Palestinians to “take responsibility for their destiny” by working for a peace deal with Israel.
Trump said at the White House with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “There are many Palestinians who want to live in peace.”
Trump also said, “The Palestinian Authority will only have itself to blame if it doesn’t finish the reforms I told them to.”
Trump claims Hamas has not consented to the proposal and “will have no role in governing Gaza.”
Donald Trump, the President of the United States, claimed that Hamas has not agreed to his plan to halt the fighting in Gaza, but he remains hopeful.
Trump also claimed that the United States would fully support Israel in its efforts to fight Hamas if it doesn’t agree to the peace accord.
“We can never forget October 7,” he remarked. “It’s time to get our hostages back now.”
Trump added that Netanyahu was “very clear about his opposition to a Palestinian state.”
“I get where he’s coming from on a lot of things,” the president of the United States said.
Trump says that “many Arab and Muslim countries” back his idea.
President Trump of the United States announced that his 21-point plan to stop the fighting in Gaza had been positively welcomed.
He remarked at a White House news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “I want to thank the leaders of many Arab and Muslim countries for their great help in making the proposal, as well as our many friends in Europe.”
Trump also thanked Netanyahu “for agreeing to the plan,” which he said will bring “peace and prosperity for the whole region” in the long term.
Before his press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, US President Donald Trump made his 21-point proposal to stop the violence in Gaza public.
There is no indication yet on whether Israel or Hamas has agreed to the deal that the US government has proposed.
The plan says that people in Gaza won’t be forced to leave their homes and that Trump will lead a transitional body. This body would also have heads of state including Tony Blair, who used to be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
The White House said Netanyahu promised not to attack Qatar again.
The White House reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged Qatar that it will not attack the Gulf country again.
This comes amid claims that Netanyahu apologized to the prime minister of Qatar over the phone when he was at the White House.
This is Netanyahu’s fourth trip to Washington, D.C. since Trump took office in January.
“Ultimately, the president knows that when you get to a good deal, both sides are going to leave a little bit unhappy,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier on Monday. “But we need this fight to stop.”
The three countries announced in a joint statement sent out by the German Foreign Ministry on Monday that Germany, France, and Britain would “continue to pursue diplomatic channels and negotiations” even after UN sanctions were put back in place on Iran.
“The end of diplomacy does not mean the end of UN sanctions,” the statement read. “We ask Iran not to take any steps that would make the situation worse and to start following its legally binding obligations about safeguards again.”
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote to UN Secretary General António Guterres in a letter released on X that “the measure taken by the three European countries is flawed from a legal and procedural point of view and is therefore null and void.”
Germany, France, and Britain have all said that Iran is not following the 2015 agreement (The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) that was supposed to stop Tehran from making nuclear weapons in exchange for easing sanctions and other things.
Iran says its nuclear program is for benign purposes, while Western countries say the Iranian regime wants an atomic weapon.
Iran stopped working with IAEA inspectors in July after Israel and subsequently the US struck important nuclear sites in June.
A diplomat who didn’t want to be named said that Netanyahu said he was sorry for the attacks that happened earlier this month that violated Qatari sovereignty and killed a Qatari security guard.
