Italy welcomed U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to end the war in Gaza and it was ready to play its part in close coordination with the United States, European partners, and regional actors, the prime minister's office said on Monday.
"The proposal presented today by U.S. President Donald Trump could mark a turning point, enabling a permanent cessation of hostilities, the immediate release of all hostages, and full and secure humanitarian access for the civilian population," it said in a statement.
"Hamas, in particular - having initiated this war with the barbaric terrorist attack of October 7, 2023 - now has the opportunity to end it by releasing the hostages, agreeing to have no role in Gaza's future, and fully disarming", the statement added.
