The UK absolutely played a key role in the peace talks.

They, along with countries like Canada, were extremely successful in delaying the peace talks through their woke extremism that demanded recognition of Hamas.

Without those imbeciles in the UK, the peace talks could have flourished earlier with a smaller loss of life.

So, yes, they plained a key role via their idiocy.

> “We have played a key role behind the scenes in shaping this.

Yes, by creating this mess in the first place, by carving up the Ottoman Empire and creating countries to give as rewards to their Arab allies in World War I.

The U.K. played an instrumental role in the Peace deal

Starmers unabashed support for Hamas and radical Islam In general in the Middle East combined with their weakness and total inability to combat the Yemeni aggression in the Red Sea convinced the Arabs that they better cut a deal with Trump and Israel before the Brits and even more corrupt and feckless EU pols got their regimes overthrown and their families killed

By its text, I suspect someone in Qatar wrote the deal up.

The Palestinians are waiting for arms shipments from the UK and France.

First, they’d like to get all their murderers back.

“UK to help bankroll £40bn Gaza rebuilding plan - but won’t seek to help govern”

https://inews.co.uk/news/politics/uk-bankroll-gaza-rebuilding-plan-board-peace-3972768

That number apparently is a newspaper estimate.

“She’s delusional”

and confirmed:

“Israel’s deputy foreign affairs minister, Sharren Haskell, told Sky News the UK played “the opposite” of a key role in the peace deal after the Palestinian state declaration, which eventually happened in September. She accused the PM’s initial threat “at a very sensitive time” in July of having “pushed Hamas to embolden their position and to refuse a ceasefire two months ago”.”

Final details on long-term administration remain unresolved.

I have not seen Hamas lose their role as the governing authority in Gaza.

Latest news/rumour was that Hamas was beginning to release the hostages tomorrow morning Israeli time.

Many have wanted and tried for Peace in the Middle East.
Why did it fail previously and seem to succeed now?

The Devil is in the details.
President Trump set the generalities of PROCESS. But Americans Rubio, Witkoff, Kushner and other Americans...and Israelis and Egyptians and Saudis and others whose names I don’t know off the top of my head ... worked out the details
