The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine welcomes the agreement reached between the State of Israel and Hamas on release of hostages and ceasefire as part of the first phase of the peace plan initiated by the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump.
Ukraine highly appreciates the leadership of the United States and the personal role of President Donald Trump in mediating and seeking solutions that pave the way toward ending the bloodshed, releasing hostages, and alleviating the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.
We also note the important role and diplomatic efforts of Qatar, Egypt, and Türkiye in reaching this agreement.
We consider this agreement as an important first step toward long-term stabilization in the Middle East, which will also contribute to strengthening international peace and security worldwide. We call upon all parties to fully and conscientiously implement these arrangements.
Ukraine consistently supports all international efforts aimed at ensuring security, protecting civilians, and upholding international humanitarian law. As President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has emphasized, Ukraine hopes that the determination of the international community will also be sufficient to compel the aggressor state, Russia, to end its war against Ukraine and restore lasting peace and security in Europe.
