The proposal, which includes the disarmament of Hamas and a pathway to a two-state solution, has drawn widespread international attention.

The Palestinian Authority (PA) welcomed Trump’s initiative, praising the proposal as a sincere effort toward ending hostilities.

The PA called for mechanisms to ensure a ceasefire, humanitarian aid, the release of Israeli hostages, and an end to the Israeli occupation.

In contrast, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) rejected the proposal, calling it a “recipe to blow up the region”.

Several Arab and Muslim-majority nations, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, expressed support for the plan.

The foreign ministers of the Muslim-majority countries released a joint statement welcoming Trump’s “sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza, and asserted their confidence in his ability to find a path to peace”.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif praised Trump’s leadership, with Sharif highlighting the role of US envoy Steve Witkoff.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Moscow welcomes any efforts by Trump aimed at “ending this ongoing tragedy.”

China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said Beijing “supports all efforts” for a de-escalation in Gaza.

European leaders also reacted positively. France’s President Emmanuel Macron and German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul urged Hamas to accept the terms.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called on all parties to engage constructively, while former PM Tony Blair praised the plan’s boldness.

The plan also gained support from countries like India, China, Russia, Australia, and New Zealand.

EU leaders, including Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, welcomed the initiative as a step toward lasting peace and emphasised the urgency of humanitarian relief and hostage release.

However, Israel’s far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich harshly criticised the plan, calling it a “diplomatic failure” and questioning its timing and impact.

While Hamas said it is reviewing the plan in good faith, the coming days will determine whether Trump’s initiative gains traction toward a negotiated ceasefire and long-term peace in Gaza.
