<h6><strong>Eduardo González</strong></h6> <h4><strong>The Foreign Ministers of Spain and Jordan, José Manuel Albares and Ayman Safadi, held a telephone conversation on Tuesday in which, among other matters, they expressed their support for "the efforts of Egypt, Qatar, and the United States to reach a ceasefire agreement" in the Gaza Strip.</strong></h4> "I have spoken with my Jordanian counterpart, my good friend Ayman Safadi, about the worrying situation in the Middle East," Albares wrote on social media. "We remain committed to the two-state solution and peace in the region," he continued. "We are working together for a ceasefire and the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza," he concluded. “The two ministers discussed efforts to achieve a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Strip,” the Jordanian Foreign Ministry wrote on social media. “The two ministers affirmed their support for the efforts of Egypt, Qatar, and the United States to reach a ceasefire agreement and the need to immediately halt the war on Gaza and end the humanitarian catastrophe by opening all crossings to the immediate entry of aid,” it added. The conversation coincided with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s official visit to Washington to meet with US President Donald Trump, amid the US president’s efforts to push for a 60-day truce between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. This is Benjamin Netanyahu’s third visit to the White House in less than six months. During the meeting between the two, no progress was made on the US proposal, and Trump simply stated that the talks are progressing very well and that the ceasefire's top priority is the release of the hostages held by Hamas. For his part, Netanyahu handed the US president the letter he sent to Oslo formally requesting Trump be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. "Thank you, Bibi," the White House resident responded. The Israeli leader also took the opportunity to warn that he will not accept the two-state solution and to present his plan to turn the Gaza Strip into a tourist resort (proposed months ago by Trump himself and rejected by the international community, including Spain) and to relocate the Palestinian population to neighboring Arab countries or, if they do not want to leave, to settle them in a "humanitarian city" (in fact, a large refugee camp) in Rafah, near the Egyptian border in the south of the Gaza Strip. Rafah, which before the conflict was home to 200,000 people, is now completely destroyed by Israeli bombing.
