In an interview with Al Jazeera, Qatar’s PM called for full implementation of the Gaza ceasefire, underlining the importance of international support and mechanisms for aid delivery. He also expressed concern over lifting sanctions on Syria in light of a new administration and condemned Israeli military actions near the Golan Heights.
Qatar’s Prime Minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, emphasized the need for the complete implementation of the Gaza ceasefire agreement during an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera. He expressed hope that the next phase of the truce would be the final one, urging the UN Security Council to issue a binding resolution to enforce the agreement.
The ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, facilitated by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, signifies a critical step towards peace in the region. The first phase, which starts Sunday, will last seven weeks and includes humanitarian aid, gradual Israeli troop withdrawal, and a prisoner exchange. The second phase is contingent on the successful execution of the first phase and is slated to begin in March.
The call for a complete ceasefire implementation highlights the role of mediators like Qatar and calls for international support to assist those affected in Gaza. Additionally, Sheikh Mohammed’s discussions with Syria’s new administration point to broader regional concerns, emphasizing the impact of sanctions and Israel’s presence in the Golan Heights vicinity. Both issues underline the complex geopolitical landscape that continues to evolve in the Middle East.
