Khaled Kadumi, representative of Hamas in Tehran, said in a television interview that the movement’s statement on conditional approval of the proposed ceasefire plan came after extensive consultations within leadership and with friendly mediators around the world.
“Trump claims he wants peace,” Kadumi said. “I replied that this was good, but we need to look into the details,” he explained that Hamas had joined the proposal through Qatar-Egypt mediation.
According to Qaddoumi, the statement highlighted several important conditions. The immediate end of the war, the withdrawal of foreign troops from Gaza, the entry into humanitarian aid, and the beginning of reconstruction. He said Hamas hopes to ensure that international partners create concrete relief for Gaza’s population.
Qaddoumi pointed to growing global support for the Palestinian cause, noting that “60% of American university students are in favor of Hamas and opposed to Israel.” He also mentioned the launch of Sumud Flotilla to support Gazan, a response to “large murders of women and children.”
People in Iran, Lebanon, Tunisia and Iraq have come to understand that Israel is not only an enemy of Palestinians, but an enemy of all countries in the region, he added.
Qaddoumi said Trump’s plans stopped forced displacement of Palestinians and acknowledged Gaza resistance and people as part of the process. But he said, “We will never trust the Zionist regime. Netanyahu only pursues his own interests, and he doesn’t even think about his people. No one in the world trusts Israel.”
“There’s a guarantee,” he said. “Trump says he can end the war in this region. We try to achieve peace for our people. They need to live a dignified life like the world.”
He confirmed that delegations from Qatar, Egypt, the US and Israel met in Cairo and “should produce positive results. Hamas provided the world with historic opportunities.”
According to Qaddoumi, the 20-point plan includes two major stages. It’s a temporary ceasefire. This is essential after the Al-Aqsa flood operation and Israeli attacks on Gaza.
The second category, he said, relates to a wider issue that extends beyond the framework of a single movement, like Hamas. According to him, these issues include fundamental concerns such as various issues that will end the war, enduring peace, political issues, the fate of Al-Kud, the situation of prisoners, and water resources. This stage requires national and regional review and agreement.
These issues must be placed on the table with assurances from what he emphasized, from the eight Arab countries, the United Nations, and even Trump himself.
However, Hamas representatives believed that speaking to merely speaks is not enough. “These countries have a significant responsibility. We simply accept the proposal and hold meetings will not reach anywhere. Now, we must implement a peace plan with all our strength,” he added.
“The agreement includes halting the genocide, withdrawing and withdrawing the Zionist regime’s troops from the Gaza Strip, entering humanitarian aid into the region, and rebuilding Gaza. This is a common responsibility and the meeting will not benefit the meeting for the meeting.”
Elsewhere in his remarks, Hamas officials addressed the future of the movement’s commander and the Gaza resistance fighter. “Permanence and resistance are the main reasons for the victory of the people in Gaza. Today we have reached an international level for resistance, the military of Gaza, the solidarity and patience of the people, and their support for the schools of the resistance and Hamas movement.”
Qaddoumi adds that the future of Gaza is bright, “Our priority is to improve the critical situation for the people of Gaza and to resolve humanitarian issues, as well as seeking sustainable political solutions for Palestinian society.”
“Hamas has always opposed the forced evacuation of Palestinians. Currently, nearly 900,000 Palestinian citizens live in Gaza, and the displaced people have returned from the south to the north rather than leaving Palestinian territory.”
