Israel war: Israel offers three-part ceasefire proposal, EU Chief welcomes 'realistic' proposal

8 months into the Israel Gaza War there's a fresh proposal to end the conflict US President Joe Biden on Friday said that Israel has now offered a new ceasefire deal a new road map towards permanent peace in Gaza for adding that it's time to end the war the three-part proposal put out by Biden includes plans for a ceasefire Surge and humanitarian Aid exchange of hostages and also a post-war plan for Gaza it is a three-part proposal which begins with immediate six we Seas fire in which the Israeli Defense Forces would also withdraw from the populated areas of Gaza the first phase would also include the exchange of Israeli hostages for Palestinian prisoners and supply of 600 Aid trucks every day in the second phase Israel and Hamas would negotiate terms for a permanent end to hostilities and the Final Phase would include a major the reconstruction plan for Gaza with international support Biden called The Proposal a decisive moment and an opportunity to prove whether Hamas really wants a ceasefire deal or not further urging Hamas to take the deal this is truly a decisive moment Israel has made their proposal Hamas says it wants to cease fire this deal is an opportunity to prove whether they really mean it Hamas needs to take the deal for months people all over the world have called for ceasefire now it's time to raise your voices and demand that H Hamas come to the table agrees to this steal and end this war that they began after Biden's remarks Hamas issued a statement saying that it welcomed Biden's call for a permanent SE Inspire and will consider it positively the militant group had early informed mediators that it would agree to a comprehensive truths agreement including a hostage prisoner swap if Israel holds its aggression however Nathan yahu further clarified that the transition from phase one to phase two was conditional and crafted to allow Israel to maintain its War aims which is to eliminate Hamas and the return of all the hostages now naan Yo's office in the statement said that and I'm quoting here the Prime Minister authorized the negotiating team to present an outline for achieving this goal while insisting that the war will not end until all of its goals are achieved including the return of hostages and elimination of Hamas well earlier on Friday Hamas leader Ismael Haner accused Israel of using negotiations as a cover to continue its aggression [Music] [Applause] [Music] an earlier hostage proposal put forward this year it was called off because Israel did not agree and now to know how different is the latest proposal from the previous ones that have been offered we were earlier joined by Glenn car who is a former National Intelligence officer from the CIA and National Security and foreign policy expert from Boston listening to what he had to say I don't know that is profoundly different actually I think what is different is that by President Biden and the United States are uh by announcing this uh and calling for the ceasefire and the peace plan uh pressuring increasing the pressure on Israel as well as on Hamas uh neither side in the plan would get everything that it is seeking uh which is the the situation and really any negotiation that is agreed upon um but to me it addresses or seeks to address to some extent President Biden's domestic uh pressures uh from the Democrats uh really uh to uh to bring more pressure to bear on Israel to stop the War uh and yet it doesn't uh go as far as Israel wants uh because it it will allow or it's mute on who will uh rule Gaza after the plan is implemented if ever were implemented so I see it as a domestic step but a step to increase pressure on Israel also they they call it in Israel's plan and parts of the Israeli government support this kind of initiative but the far right within the cabinet of Netanyahu already has said that they will not stop until Hamas is eliminated and Netanyahu himself has said that so it's pressuring um addressing domestic American concerns pressuring Israel a bit and offering uh no one everything which is probably wise because uh that's not a negotiation otherwise [Music]
