Responding to Witkoff, Hamas vows no demilitarization ‘as long as the occupation exists’

[IsraelTime] Senior Hamas official Hussam Badran tells the Hamas-affiliated Palestinian news agency Shabakat Quds that US envoy Steve Witkoff’s remarks about the terror group needing to demilitarize if it wants to remain politically involved in Gaza is “a meaningless proposal as long as the occupation [Israel] exists.”

“When we talk about the weapons of the resistance, they are the weapons of the Palestinian people. Therefore, these weapons are carried by Palestinians to resist the occupation, as guaranteed by international laws and conventions,” adds Badran.

Noted. To the death of Hamas, then.

#2 A very critical take on Witkoff's statements about Hamas and Qatar:

"Witkoff’s shocking words on Hamas and Jolani raise serious concerns"

IMO Witkoff's position is indistinguishable from EU mainstream diplomatic consensus or from that of a hypothetical ~~4th Obama term~~ Harris administration.

#3 A Witkoff quote from the article:

“You have to know what Hamas wants… and then you’ve got to figure out what you can give them that allows them to walk out because that’s what’s needed here”

We generally know what 'they' want because generally 'they' are telling the world public what they want.

Even the Russians are making their demands public.

#4 ^
Russia had long been concerned with the decline in its self-regarded sphere of influence in the former Soviet republics which were aligning themselves with the West economically and politically, although they were obstinately dissatisfied with the existing security architecture and NATO expansion.
