ISTANBUL, Nov. 4 (Xinhua) — Foreign ministers from seven countries met in Istanbul on Monday to discuss efforts to maintain a ceasefire in Gaza and plans for the future of the enclave amid continued Israeli strikes.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan received his counterparts from the UAE, Indonesia, Qatar, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Jordan.
H. Fidan said the ministers agreed on the need to maintain the ceasefire and prevent further violence. "All participants agree that we do not want a resumption of atrocities in Gaza," he told reporters, adding that the parties support the principle of "two states for two peoples" as the basis for lasting peace.
He accused Israel of repeated ceasefire violations and blocking humanitarian aid.
H. Fidan emphasized the need to first reach consensus on the draft plan. "This is a delicate process, and we must proceed with caution. Any steps taken to resolve the Palestinian issue must not create structural problems in the future," he noted.
The head of the Turkish Foreign Ministry noted that the seven countries share a common position that “Palestinians must govern Palestine and ensure its security.”
Despite a ceasefire that took effect on October 10, Israeli strikes have continued, killing more than 200 Palestinians, according to Gaza health authorities. –0–
