The United States has proposed a comprehensive 21-point peace plan to resolve the ongoing conflict between Hamas and Israel and to establish a path toward a Palestinian state. The key elements of the plan, as reported by The Times of Israel, include the immediate release of hostages, encouraging Palestinians to stay in Gaza, and amnesty for non-violent Hamas members. The document was shared with Arab and Muslim nations at the UN General Assembly. The US plan for a future Palestinian state contradicts the prior stance of the Trump administration. The proposal includes several points regarding Israel, encompassing Hamas disarmament, the demilitarization of Gaza, and the deradicalization of the population. Former President Trump expressed his hope for a successful resolution, stating that extensive negotiations are ongoing. The 21-point plan encompasses steps such as de-radicalizing Gaza, rebuilding the Gaza Strip, implementing an immediate ceasefire, repatriating hostages within 48 hours, returning Palestinian prisoners and bodies, offering amnesty to peaceful Hamas members, providing humanitarian aid, establishing a temporary administration, creating a special economic zone, ensuring that no resident is forced to leave Gaza, dismantling Hamas’s military structure, having regional powers oversee security, establishing a temporary stabilization force, and ensuring Israel will not occupy or annex Gaza. It also seeks to create a long-term political framework with the US, Israel, and Palestine.
