00:00Just to close the loop on Gaza, is there a diplomatic push underway to try to get all this to end?

00:05Oh, there's a diplomatic push?

00:07No, is there?

00:08There has been, yeah, sure.

00:09Right now.

00:10Steve, I would say a very serious diplomatic push.

00:14Marco or Steve, Marco, do you want to answer that first?

00:18It's never stopped.

00:19We've always looked to find a solution there.

00:21Ultimately, as the president said, we want it to end.

00:24It has to end with no Hamas.

00:28Steve, where are we?

00:30I would say that we wouldn't be anywhere but for the president's truth last week,

00:34which was a statement to Hamas that they better get their act together and get to the peace table.

00:40But for that, it would have been all stalled.

00:42So, as usual, he is the man who moves it.

00:46Thank you, sir.

00:48Thank you very much, everybody.

00:49Thank you, guys.
