Peace Talks Gaza: The main stick points

The negotiators from Israel and Hamas head to Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, to launch indirect negotiations to end the war in Israel-Gaza.

This is the closest and both sides have made a deal since the war began two years ago

But Donald Trump 20-point peace plan – which Israel agreed and Hamas partially agreed – it really is just a frame, only a few pages long.

And there are still basic bonding points to allow both sides.

Trump’s plan states that within 72 hours after the agreed transaction, all other hostages will be published. It is believed that 48 Israeli hostages remain in Gaza, 20 of which are thought to be alive.

Trump said the hostages could be released “very soon” over the weekend, until Netanyahu said they could be released before the end of the Jewish holiday Sukot – or October 13.

Hamas agreed to the abundant “exchange formula” detailed in the Trump plan, provided that certain “field conditions” were met.

But the hostages are the only chip for negotiating the group – and it is unclear whether it would be ready to release them before other elements of the transaction were finalized.

The confidence between the two countries does not practically exist. Israel only last month Attempt to kill the Hamas Negotiating Team With an air strike on Doha – not only Hamas, but also Donald Trump and Qatar, a key intermediary.

The members of the same negotiation team – led by Halil Al -Haya, whose son was killed in the strike – now they will only meet with a stone from the Israeli delegation in Egypt.

Israel’s stated goal throughout the war is the destruction of Hamas. Netanyahu repeatedly states that he will not stop until the group is over.

A key point in Trump’s plan requires the group to disarm. But Hamas had previously refused to put on his weapons, saying that it would only do so after the Palestinian State was created.

In his response, Hamas did not mention disarmament – he nourished speculation that he had not changed his position.

Over the weekend, Netanyahu promised: “Hamas will be disarmed and gas will be demilitarized – either the easy way or the hard way.”

The plan states that Hamas will not play a future role in Gaza, which will be managed by a temporary transitional body of the Palestinian technocrats – controlled by the Peace Council, headed and chaired by Donald Trump and including former United Kingdom Prime Minister Tony Blair.

The management of the tape will eventually be passed on to the Palestinian power (PA).

Although Netanyahu agreed to Trump’s entire 20 -point plan, he seems to have stepped back with the BCP’s participation, even when he stood on the podium until the President last week, insisting that he will not play any role under the management of the territory.

This is one of the many points in the plan that will be undoubted for the ultra -nationalist hardliners within the ruling coalition of Netanyahu – many of which want to maintain control of Gaza and reconstruct the Jewish settlements there.

In Hamas’s response, he pointed out that he expects to have a future role in gas as part of the United Palestinian Movement. Although the wording is unclear, it will probably be unacceptable for both Trump and the Israelis.

The degree of Israel’s military withdrawal is the fourth point of dispute.

The plan states that the military in Israel will withdraw from Gaza “based on standards, major stages and time frames” that must be agreed by all countries.

A A card spread by the White House He showed three proposed stages of withdrawal of Israeli troops. The first stage leaves about 55%of the gas under Israeli control, the second 40%, and the final 15%.

This last stage will be a “perimeter of security”, which “will remain until the gas is properly protected from any renewable threat of terror.”

The wording here is unclear and does not give a clear timeline for the complete withdrawal of Israel – something Hamas probably wants clarity.

In addition, the map, shared by the White House, does not coincide with its own maps of the Israeli military showing militarized areas, and the limits of Gaza are incorrectly drawn up in places.
