“I have red lines, if certain things aren’t met we’re not going to do it,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office when asked if he had preconditions including Hamas agreeing to disarm.
“But I think we’re doing very well and I think Hamas has been agreeing to things that are very important.”
Trump said he was optimistic about the chances of a deal as delegations from Hamas and Israel began indirect talks in Egypt on ending the war under his 20-point plan.
“I think we’re going to have a deal. It’s a hard thing for me to say that when for years and years they’ve been trying to have a deal,” Trump said.
“We’re going to have a Gaza deal, I’m pretty sure, yeah.”
Trump also dismissed a report that he had accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being negative about the talks, saying that Netanyahu had been “very positive about the deal.”
