"We have one signature that we need, and that signature will pay in hell if they don't sign. I hope they sign for their own good and create something really great," Trump said in a speech before hundreds of generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia. U.S. and Israeli officials expect Hamas to give a generally positive response to Trump's proposal, with some reservations."
"On Monday night, while Trump presented his plan to the world, Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani and Egyptian intelligence chief Hassan Rashad were presenting it to Hamas leaders in Doha, a source with knowledge said. Both urged Hamas to accept. Al-Thani advised the Hamas leaders that this was the best deal he was able to get for them and it won't get much better, the source said."
"Al-Thani also stressed that based on his conversations with Trump, he was confident the U.S. president was seriously committed to ending the war. He said that was a strong enough guarantee for Hamas. The Hamas leaders told al-Thani they would study the proposal in good faith, according to the source."
President Trump said he is giving Hamas three to four days to respond to his proposal and warned of consequences if they withhold a signature. He delivered the remark to hundreds of generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia. U.S. and Israeli officials anticipate a generally positive Hamas response with reservations. Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani and Egyptian intelligence chief Hassan Rashad presented the plan to Hamas in Doha and urged acceptance, with al-Thani calling it the best achievable deal. Al-Thani expressed confidence in Trump’s commitment to ending the war and said Hamas should reach consensus with other Palestinian factions before responding.
