A senior Hamas official urges an immediate end to the conflict related to Israel Gaza. He has also claimed an end to the plan for Palestinian statehood.
Hamas calls for end of war.
This call comes after former President Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential elections. The official highlighted the need for a peaceful resolution.
The statement emphasizes the importance of addressing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and stresses the need to achieve a two-state solution.
According to him, the US presidential election is a private matter. The Hamas Political Bureau member and spokesperson named Basem Naim told Newsweek, that the Palestinians are looking forward to an immediate cessation of the aggression against the people.
This is especially true in Gaza. They are also looking for assistance in achieving their rights of freedom, independence, and the establishment of their independent self-sovereign state. They aim to have Jerusalem as its capital.
He further negates the blind support for the Zionist entity ‘Israel’ and its fascist government. He sees it as an agent that poses a threat to the people’s future and the region’s security and stability. Therefore, he feels that it must stop immediately.
When previously in office, Trump had forged a close relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Benjamin is today actively engaged in a multi-front war against the Iran-aligned Axis of Resistance.
This began with a large-scale Hamas-led attack against Israel in October 2023. However, Trump has heavily criticized Netanyahu’s wartime leadership. He also wants a timely end to it.
An Israeli official informed that maintaining and building upon the special relationship between the U.S. and Israel has turned out to be a bipartisan feature of American politics. It has been so since the founding of the Jewish state.
They expressed their confidence that this will continue to be the case. They are hopeful about building a strong working relationship with the administration. This will help to bring about a more peaceful, secure, and prosperous Middle East.
With lots of disagreement between President Joe Biden and Netanyahu throughout the war, the Israeli premier was the first to congratulate Trump. Trump’s victory is considered history’s greatest comeback.
Netanyahu had said that his historic return to the White House was more like a new beginning for America. It can be seen as a powerful recommitment concerning the alliance between Israel and America.
However, Trump holds Biden and Harris for this and considers that they have been too soft on Iran. He also mentions this would have never happened under his presidency.
