“I will not allow it [a two-state solution]."

Netanyahu's government "doesn't want anything remotely approaching a two-state solution.

"The only thing that Iran and Israel have in common is that neither of them believes in a two-state solution."

"[T]he current conflict is likely to put the last nail in the coffin of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process."

"A two-state solution exists only in theory. In practice, it died long ago."

"The war between Israel and Hamas makes the two-state solution less viable than ever before."

“[W]hat has happened on 7 October has postponed the possibility of the two-state solution."

"The two-state solution remains on the table, if only for the lack of any viable alternative."

"If Israel has the will, or capacity, to relocate 200,000 settlers from the West Bank and Jerusalem, a two-state solution is a viable option."

"If international actors can muster enough political will and capital... they could still bring about [a two-state solution]."

“[The two-state solution] is the only solution – there is no realistic competition.”

"We will not allow the rights of our people, for which we have struggled for decades and made great sacrifices to achieve, to be infringed upon."

"Trump is not serious about wanting to "own" Gaza."

"Donald Trump's plan for the US to "take over" and "own" Gaza, resettling its population in the process, is not going to happen."

"The plan is not about to be implemented."

"I have news for you - we aren't taking over Gaza."

"Trump could be all bluster, but it would be unwise to write off his words or quietly hope that they don't materialize."

"I am committed to US president Trump's plan for the creation of a different Gaza."

"I'm committed to buying and owning Gaza."

"We are not going to occupy Gaza - we are going to free Gaza from Hamas."

"Israel will not annex or occupy Gaza."

"Unless the United States changes its stance, I think ultimately, Israel will continue with this plan."

"I think Trump is going to let Netanyahu do whatever he wants."

"Israel will take control of Gaza."

"We are conquering Gaza to stay – there will be no more temporary manoeuvring. It's time to stop fearing the word occupation."

Will Israel Take Control of Gaza City?

President Donald Trump announced the creation of a Board of Peace, originally conceived to oversee the Gaza ceasefire and reconstruction, with Trump serving as chairman holding authority to appoint executive board members and create or dissolve subsidiary bodies. The board's charter describes it as an international organization mandated to carry out peace-building functions under international law.

The board's charter describes it as an international organization mandated to carry out peace-building functions under international law.

Seven Muslim-majority countries including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan and Qatar announced they would join the Board of Peace, endorsing the aim of consolidating a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and supporting reconstruction. Israel also publicly confirmed its participation, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accepting Trump's invitation despite initially criticizing the board's composition.

The Board of Peace charter offers permanent seats to countries contributing $1 billion, with member states otherwise given renewable three-year terms. The charter enters into force once three states formally agree to be bound by it, according to a leaked document.

Trump stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin had accepted his invitation to join the board, but Putin responded that Russia was still studying the invitation and viewed the board as primarily relevant to the Middle East. Putin said Russia was prepared to provide $1 billion from frozen Russian assets.

Several European countries including France, Norway and Sweden declined invitations to join the Board of Peace, citing concerns about how the proposal relates to the United Nations and established international structures. Slovenia's Prime Minister Robert Golob said he declined because the body "dangerously interferes with the broader international order."

The White House named seven founding Executive Board members including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair. Former UN Middle East envoy Nickolay Mladenov was appointed as the board's representative in Gaza during the plan's second phase.
