As the enthusiasm of Israel continues to stop, political leaders from Palestinian group She expressed cautious optimism about the ability of the new US administration to continue to pressure Israel at the negotiating table, even when President Donald Trump and his team submitted widely demands during his first weeks in his position “About” About “About”CleaningGaza and IsraelThe biblical rightTo the occupied West Bank.

Speaking to the island, Bassem Nayem, the leader of Hamas in Doha, said that the group “is interested in meeting anyone who can help us achieve our goals, which are the goals of our people.” He was martyred in the state, the determination of destiny, and the right to return to the Palestinians who fled or were forced to leave their homes after the Nakba in 1948-when Israel was created in the majority of historical Palestine-or subsequent wars.

This includes the Trump administration, Naim said. “If there is any opportunity to meet any party, including the Trump administration, to discuss in detail how we can achieve such goals, I think there will be no veto in the movement and not the objections.”

“In politics, it is not about admiring someone or not admiring someone,” Naim added, referring to the American president. “It is related to the interests of all parties.”

Nayem’s comments followed similar feelings shared by Musa Abu Marzuk, Musa Marzuk, in an interview with the New York Times on January 20. The president, “is attributed to the end of the Israeli war. Hamas.

It seems that the comments indicate an approach by Hamas to the United States administration, which they hope will spread a more rough approach to the conflict even with the survival Supporting Israel.

Short -term ceasefire, long -term strategy

Naims welcomed Trump’s interference in the ceasefire talks drape During the era of President Joe Biden, he expressed confidence that the agreement will keep it. “We are committed to the deal and practice the maximum efforts to give this deal an opportunity to succeed,” he said to the meeting.

He also pointed out that the strategic alliance between the United States and Israel was “so strong that we have not seen any serious differences between Republicans and Democrats.”

“Nevertheless, we are still hoping that the current administration can make a change and turn into a new American approach to the Palestinian question,” he added. “If this happens, I am sure that we are ready to cooperate with any party ready to do so.”

Naim may express cautious optimism, but he is also concerned about Trump’s long -term plans, citing comments on the “biblical right” of Israel in the West Bank occupied by Trump’s candidate to be an American ambassador to the United Nations, Elise Stefanick, as “disappointing” and ” dangerous “.

He warned that the situation in the West Bank, where Israel carried out fatal raids after the ceasefire in Gaza and the violence of settlers had reached new levels of intensity, as very volatile.

“We are talking about a very extreme political group of people,” he said. “If nothing happened from the top – especially from the United States, from the Trump administration – in this group of people, I think it is a matter of time before we see the next explosion.”

“When it comes to the current situation, the change in the United States helped reach the ceasefire agreement,” he added. “President Trump clearly stated that he wanted to see an end to this war before the opening day, and he practiced pressure on the situation to see anyone.”

Nayem said that Trump’s clear support for more Israeli lands was holding in the occupied territories, and the possibility of annexing the West Bank was very concerned.

“When it comes to a long -term strategy … I think it is very dangerous if we are looking for stability, security and prosperity in the region.”

“If Trump is planning to stand firmly behind the promises he made, he wants to see an end to all these wars and that he is looking for peace, stability and normalization, I am sure that he and his team are aware of that, and Naim added that the war in the region does not serve these goals.

“If he is really planning to achieve stability and security in the region and focus on other issues, he must put pressure on Netanyahu and his racist government and alliance to stop this madness, to stop acting as a rogue state, or as a state above the law.”

“Personally, I think he will do it,” he added.

“Don’t go anywhere”

Sultan Barackat, a political analyst and professor of public policy at Hamad Bin Khalifa University of the Qatar Foundation, said that Hamas came out of the 15 -month war, which proves to be monitored despite the comprehensive military efforts of Israel to eliminate it.

“They do not go anywhere,” Barackat said, adding that this made the group a continuous political fact that Trump cannot avoid.

For its part, it recognizes Trump’s decisive role over his predecessor, while realizing that his administration does not necessarily indicate an improvement.

“It is not a matter of being better for the Palestinians. But I think they saw the difference he made when he entered into negotiations, and the pressure he was able to practice,” said Barakat. “With Biden, for 15 months, many promises have been fed, and many red lines that crossed Israel without any consequences.”

He added: “They see him as a serious person who said” stop “. “But this does not mean that it will be on the side of the Palestinians.”

Barakat emphasized the existence of other moments in the past, where Hamas felt optimistic about the United States’ policy towards Palestine, including In 2017When the group modified its charter and removed its language, explicitly calling for the destruction of Israel.

But the United States “failed them”, added Barack. He added that the current ceasefire agreement was a first step, as added, the second and third stages of the deal, regarding the reconstruction and rule in Gaza, remained mysterious.

However, Trump was able to penetrate stagnation.

With Biden, they reached the bottom of the expected global leader. And not only the Palestinians, I think everyone who participates in this process felt the same. “

Barackat, who participated in negotiations between the United States and the Taliban in Afghanistan, under the first Trump administration, noted that a similar dynamic was operated at the time.

He added: “When you have someone who comes and says:” You are doing this, and we do not know what he said to others, but they did that, “on the surface is worth admiration.” “They like it. But they do not trust him to go forward.”
