A speaker said more than two dozen countries signed a commitment to demilitarize Gaza and to prevent Hamas from retaining the capability to threaten Israel.
“We want to help create the conditions here so that people in Gaza don't have to be terrorized by Hamas, and in fact, have lives, jobs, businesses, and a better future, and are completely uninterested ever again in joining, supporting, or being held captive by a terrorist group,” the speaker said. The speaker added that the pledge was not limited to the United States: “Understand, over 2 dozen countries signed on to this, including regional powers, regional countries, Arab countries, a majority Muslim countries signed on to the commitment that there would not that there would be a demilitarized Gaza and that there would not be a Hamas with the capability to threaten Israel.”
The speaker later reiterated: “That's a commitment not just by The United States. This was signed on by all these countries. We fully expect that everyone will live up to those commitments.”
