I have just spoken with His Majesty King Abdullah II of Jordan and with President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi of Egypt. We share the same conviction: The military offensive in Gaza that Israel is preparing can only lead to disaster for both peoples and risks plunging the entire region into a cycle of permanent war. We believe that only the following course of action can bring this conflict to an end: → The establishment of a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. → The release of all hostages. → The large-scale delivery of humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza. → The disarmament of Hamas and the strengthening of the Palestinian Authority in Gaza. To achieve this, together with Egypt, Jordan, and all our regional and international partners, we must: → Deploy an international stabilization mission for Gaza. → Work towards a political solution that fulfills the aspirations of both peoples, Israeli and Palestinian. France will co-chair, alongside Saudi Arabia, the Conference on the two-state solution in New York this September in order to advance along this path. This is the only credible way forward—for the families of the hostages, for Israelis, and for Palestinians alike. No to war. Yes to peace and security for all.
