Trump threatens Hamas: It is over if you don't!
In a drastic warning to Hamas,President Donald Trump made it unequivocally clear that taking into account her demands on the release of hostages and a permanent solution to the conflict is crucial. Trump threatened the terrorist group on his Truth platform that every Hamas member was "dead" if they are not cooperative. "Immediately frees all the hostages, or it is over for you!" He announced in striking capital letters, while he promised the Gaza -residents a "wonderful future", provided the hostages are released. In this context, Israel confirmed that they were consulted by the United States before direct talks began with Hamas, in which the release of hostages and a more comprehensive agreement to terminate the Guerilla War were dealt with, such as oe24.at reported.
The talks led by Adam Boehler, the US specialist for hostage questions, are an unprecedented step, since the United States has not conducted direct negotiations with the Hamas classified as a terrorist organization since 1997. These negotiations have taken place in Doha, Qatar in the past few weeks and not only concentrated on the liberation of American hostages, but also on a possible long-term ceasefire, such as . So far, however, no concrete agreements have been reached.
Israel's position and the reaction of the Hamas
The Israeli government has underlined its willingness to continue the negotiations, but the immediate release of all hostages is a basic requirement. The Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar pointed out that Israel is ready to initiate the second phase of the arms rest agreement, while Hamas is urging the fights and the deduction of Israeli troops. So far, it has remained unclear how the details of the planned agreements on a ceasefire and the hostage acceptance are precisely designed.
In the meantime, Hamas sees one of its main funding sources in humanitarian aid, which, however, repeatedly abuses it for terrorist acts. Israel has stopped the auxiliary transports into the badly damaged Gazage area, which not only resulted in national but also international criticism, including Germany. The Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic expressed that it was not a legitimate means of using humanitarian aid as a means of pressure in negotiations.| Details | |
