National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan addressed the recent successful mission that led to the return of innocent civilians held in Gaza for eight months. While details of the U.S. involvement were not disclosed, the focus remains on the positive outcome of reuniting these individuals with their families.
The U.S. has expressed satisfaction with the way the Israelis executed the mission, emphasizing the importance of diplomatic solutions over military interventions. President Biden has publicly called for a ceasefire and a hostage deal as the preferred approach to ensure the safe return of all hostages.
The President believes that a negotiated deal is the most effective way to secure the release of the remaining hostages without resorting to further military actions. The goal is to avoid prolonged conflicts and military operations, allowing for a peaceful resolution to the situation.
In the absence of Hamas agreeing to the proposed deal, the risk of continued conflict and military engagements remains high. Israel has shown willingness to embrace a ceasefire, awaiting a positive response from Hamas to move forward with the diplomatic process.
The international community, including France, has voiced support for President Biden's efforts to facilitate a peaceful resolution. The call for Hamas to engage in dialogue and accept the ceasefire offer is seen as a crucial step towards ending the ongoing hostilities and ensuring the safe return of all hostages.
