Former Foreign Minister Ambassador Nabil Fahmy said that President Trump’s current initiative contains about twenty points, describing it as a “pencil-written initiative,” referring to its ambiguity and the weak stability of some of its contents as the details progress.

During his speech at the Maspero Cultural Salon, broadcast on the First Channel on Saturday evening, Fahmy affirmed that he cannot remain silent in the face of the killing and destruction scenes in Gaza, stressing that the humanitarian dimension of the events — including killing, starving, and displacement — requires “humane treatment” and should not be ignored when discussing any initiative or political solutions.

However, he clarified that this does not mean accepting any compromises that might lead to relinquishing the entire Palestinian cause or abandoning national rights. He said that the political handling of the initiative must ensure that the current crisis does not become a pretext to impose solutions that undermine the interests of the Palestinians.

The former Foreign Minister pointed out that the texts of the initiative “contain what the other party wants” but “not with the clarity required,” considering that negotiations must be conducted cautiously and motivated by discussing details precisely, not by presumptive acceptance of what is presented.

Fahmy added that full reliance on the opponent’s commitments is not possible, emphasizing the need for caution and verification that the terms of any agreement are understood and guaranteed, and expressed doubts about the commitment of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government to these terms in the long run.

He continued: “I am not convinced that Netanyahu and his government will be committed until the end.”
