A HAMAS fegyverszünetet kínál: Merész elmozdulást a politikai átalakulás felé
- In a revealing interview, Khalil al-Hayya, a top official from Hamas, announced the group’s readiness to halt hostilities for at least five years. He detailed that Hamas would disarm and rebrand as a political entity upon the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders. This represents a drastic pivot from their previous stance focused on the destruction of Israel.
Al-Hayya elaborated that this transformation hinges on forming a sovereign state that includes both Gaza and the West Bank. He discussed plans for merging with the Palestine Liberation Organization to establish a unified government and transforming their armed wing into a national army once statehood is achieved.
However, skepticism remains about Israel’s receptiveness to these terms. After lethal attacks on October 7, Israel has toughened its position against Hamas and continues to oppose any Palestinian state formed from territories captured in 1967.
This shift by Hamas could either open new avenues for peace or be met with stiff resistance, highlighting ongoing complexities in Israeli-Palestinian relations.
