Key Points from Trump’s Comprehensive ‘Resolution Strategy’ for Gaza?

Provided that the two parties agree to a specific series of conditions, the halt to conflict will be followed by the freeing of all individuals held by Hamas, whether deceased or surviving, “over a 72-hour period” of the Israeli government publicly accepting the arrangement.

As a trade for the freeing of captives, Israeli authorities would free a group of 250 Palestinians presently undergoing life sentences and 1,700 Palestinians in the Gaza region detained since the conflict started on October 7, 2023 following the lethal assault by Hamas on the nation of Israel.

For every Israeli hostage whose remains are handed over, Israel will hand back the corpses of 15 deceased Palestinians.

This proposal does not require a complete Israeli pullout prior to the captive release. On the contrary, Israel’s military would withdraw to an agreed upon line, inside of Gaza, to prepare for a captive liberation.

The proposal says that all armed activities, including bombing and artillery fire, will be suspended during the exchange operation and battle lines will stay fixed until “requirements are satisfied for the gradual total pullout”.

After each detainee are released, clemency will be awarded to Hamas affiliates – the armed Islamist faction that Israel’s prime minister, PM Netanyahu, has repeatedly vowed to destroy – who accept non-violent cohabitation and to disarm themselves.

Those who want to exit Gaza territory will be given protected movement to nations who have agreed to receive them.

This twenty-point proposal foresees Gaza territory as “a region cleared of extremism and terrorism that does not pose a risk to adjacent states”. Additionally, it says the area will be “revitalized for the welfare of the people of Gaza, who have endured excessive hardship”.

Vitally, and opposing the perspective of a few of Netanyahu’s far-right coalition partners, Israel’s leadership will avoid occupying or take over the land, which was the site of 21 communities established by Israel prior to their populace was removed in the year 2005.

Furthermore, not any individual be obligated to exit Gaza, the strategy guarantees. Individuals who want to exit will be permitted to do so without restriction and permitted to return.

Hamas will be prohibited from any participation, “in any capacity”, in the upcoming leadership of the territory.

Donald Trump Encourages Representatives to ‘Act Quickly’ as They Meet in Egypt for Gaza Negotiations

Donald J. Trump has called on delegates from Hamas and Israel gathering in Egypt for key negotiations targeting concluding the Israeli conflict in Gaza to “accelerate progress,” remarking, in comments on Sunday morning, that there had been “extremely constructive” discussions.

The American leader stated:

We have had extremely constructive negotiations with Hamas, and Nations from around the globe (Arab and Muslim nations, among others) this weekend, to liberate the detainees, end the War in the Gaza region but, of greater importance, at last achieve long-awaited peace in the area of the Middle East.

These discussions have been extremely effective, and advancing swiftly. Expert delegations will meet once more on Monday, in Egypt, to tackle and finalize the last points. I am told that the initial stage should be completed this week, and I am asking each participant to ACCELERATE PROGRESS.

America’s representative Steve Witkoff is slated to attend the negotiations, as per sources in Israel, together with representatives from Israel and a Palestinian delegation led by Al-Hayya, the vice chairman of the political bureau of the Hamas movement.

Al-Hayya is expected to meet with facilitators from Qatar and Egypt in Cairo today in the morning, prior to negotiations in the Egyptian tourist destination of Sharm El-Sheikh.

Nevertheless, Israel’s chief negotiator, the strategic affairs minister Dermer, is anticipated to participate in talks later this week, pending advancements in the talks, according to multiple Israeli sources.

Optimism about a possible truce has increased across the world, with leaders from the West and Arab nations pressuring Israel and Hamas to finalize a settlement. On Sunday, the Germany’s chancellor, Friedrich Merz, contacted Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu and expressed support for the Trump initiative, labeling it as “the optimal opportunity for stability”, based on a official statement.
