US and Israel Officials Meet in Washington Amid Ongoing Discussions Over Second Phase of Gaza Ceasefire
ai generated text
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has traveled to the United States to participate in discussions with President Donald Trump regarding the second phase of the ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian group Hamas in Gaza. According to Netanyahu's office, these negotiations are scheduled to commence on Monday in Washington, DC, marking Trump's first meeting with a foreign leader following his inauguration on January 20.
Bibi Netanyahu's coming on Tuesday, and I think we have some very big meetings scheduled.
I have no guarantees that the peace is going to hold.
But I believe that, working closely with President Trump, we can redraw it even further and for the better.
These are critical moments in which I repeat my call to complete all stages of the deal and swiftly bring back all our abducted brothers and sisters — every last one of them.
We must strengthen our grip and sovereignty over the homeland in Judea and Samaria.
I've been saying since day one that Netanyahu and the thugs around him in the coalition and the government are not really interested in a ceasefire or saving the Israeli hostages — let alone saving the lives of thousands of Palestinians.
We hope to see some movement in the coming days.
There is no political reason preventing Netanyahu from going to the next phase.
Contacts and negotiation on the second phase have begun.
Fourth is Donald Trump, who wants to be a peacemaker, but who is also staunchly pro-Israel to the extent that his solution to bring peace is to send all the Gaza residents to Egypt and Jordan. So there's no way to square those four sides to get a phase two at this point.
