Cameron makes lasting peace in Gaza conditional on the dismantling of Hamas

British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said on Wednesday that the release of hostages held by Hamas is essential for a ceasefire in Gaza, but for a lasting ceasefire, several requirements must be met, including the dismantling of Hamas' military capabilities.

In an interview with Reuters during a trip to Thailand, Cameron described Hamas' attacks against Israel on October 7 and the hostage-taking as “inhumane.” “What we should try is to turn this pause around [que se negocia entre Israel y Hamás con la mediación de EE UU, Qatar y Egipto] In a permanent and sustainable ceasefire. “This will only be achieved if many conditions are met… We have to remove Hamas leaders from Gaza, and we have to dismantle their terrorist infrastructure.”

His statements come amid a new round of negotiations between Israel and Hamas, which began on Sunday in Doha (Qatar). An attempt is being made to reach a truce for at least 40 days during which Israeli hostages can be released in exchange for the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and allowing humanitarian aid to enter Gaza freely. At that time, in addition, progress must be made towards a permanent ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal, according to Hamas's latest proposal. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will travel to the Middle East this week, where he will meet with the leaders of Egypt and Saudi Arabia “to discuss the appropriate architecture for lasting peace.” (Reuters)
