00:00You mentioned President Trump there. He's just spoken recently in Qatar on his Middle East tour and suggested the U.S. could take Gaza, he said, and turn it into what he has described as a freedom zone. What does Hamas make of those comments and that suggestion?
00:17To be honest, it is very strange. We were in direct contact with the American administrations, sometimes through the mediators and sometimes directly.
00:32And we have told all the mediators clearly that our main goal is how to stop this aggression and how to allow aid to come into Gaza and to give this a push and to succeed and to help bathing the way for a successful visit in the area, in the region.
00:53We have made this gesture to President Trump by releasing the Israeli-American soldier Alexander Aydan. Within these talks and negotiations, there was a clear understanding between us and the Americans that when we do this, President Trump, he will thank Hamas for this.
01:18But what is most important, he will, on the second day, oblige Israel to allow aid to come into Gaza and he will call for an immediate ceasefire talks with the goal to end this war.
