Netanyahu claimed on Thursday that Hamas has “reneged” on certain pledges in the agreement.
But, speaking to the Associated Press, Egypt’s chief diplomat and Foreign minister, Badr Abdelatty, said a deal had been reached thanks to “deep involvement” by US, Qatari and Egyptian mediators, including officials from Donald Trump’s incoming administration.
“We have a deal. What’s very important is to start implementation,” Abdelatty said from the foreign ministry’s headquarters in the New Administrative Capital, a newly built city east of Cairo.
“What we are doing now is to push for final approval and implementation, without any delay.
The Egyptian capital, Cairo, will be the location for continued talks between America, Qatar and Egypt on implementing the deal.
The minister said the talks were set to begin soon, and that the mediators would have an “operation room” overseeing the deal in the Egyptian capital.
“We are fully committed to fulfil our own commitments and we are expecting that others to fulfil their own commitments.”
