Meanwhile, Washington's main European allies, such as France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy, supported the plan. European Commission President Antonio Costa urged to "seize this moment to give peace a real chance."
Spokesperson Karoline Leavitt confirmed on Thursday that President Donald Trump will set the final deadline for the terrorist organization Hamas to accept the peace proposal developed together with Israel. The president had already indicated that he would give the terrorist group between three and four days to respond to the document.
The "Trump Plan" includes key conditions: an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages within 72 hours, the disarmament of Hamas, and a gradual withdrawal of the Israeli army from Gaza.
During the presentation in Washington, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly supported the initiative and warned that, if Hamas rejects the proposal or attempts to sabotage it, Israel will complete the military offensive on its own.
The agreement also provides for the creation of a transitional authority led by Trump together with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, with international support.
The announcement caused immediate reactions in the international community. Eight Arab and Muslim countries—Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Türkiye, Indonesia, and Pakistan—highlighted the "sincere efforts" of the proposal.
In Gaza, the reception was cautious. A senior official from the terrorist organization Hamas indicated that the group would respond officially once all the details are known.
The Palestinian Authority in the West Bank appreciated Trump's efforts but warned about the "complex demands of the plan."
The project also includes an international stabilization force and a security guarantee framework until the formation of a future Palestinian institutional framework.
Trump reaffirmed that, if Hamas rejects the plan, the United States will give full support to Israel. At the same time, he assured that peace in the Middle East is "closer than ever" and described the day as "one of the greatest possible days of civilization."
