Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says there are “gaps” between the cease-fire deal Israel proposed and the version of it that President Biden described on Friday.
Netanyahu stated Monday that Biden’s description of the deal was “incomplete,” indicating it was less expansive than Biden had suggested.
“The proposal that Biden presented is incomplete,” Netanyahu said. “The war will stop in order to bring hostages back, and afterward we will hold discussions. There are other details that the U.S. president did not present to the public.”
Netanyahu went on to say that Israel can stop the war for as long as six weeks, but no longer, according to Israeli media.
“Iran and all of our enemies are watching to see if we capitulate,” he said.
Israel has pushed back on Biden’s cease-fire proposal since he announced it on Friday. A top adviser to Netanyahu stated on Sunday that it was “not a good plan.”
以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡表示，以色列提出的停火协议与拜登总统周五描述的版本存在“差距”。
内塔尼亚胡周一表示，拜登对该协议的描述“不完整”，表明该协议没有拜登建议的那么广泛。
内塔尼亚胡说，“拜登提出的建议是不完整的。战争将停止，以便带回人质，之后我们将进行讨论。还有一些细节是美国总统没有向公众公布的。”
据以色列媒体报道，内塔尼亚胡接着说，以色列可以停止战争长达六周，但不能再长了。
他说，“伊朗和我们所有的敌人都在观望我们是否会屈服。”
自拜登周五宣布停火提议以来，以色列一直反对拜登的提议。内塔尼亚胡的一位高级顾问周日表示，这“不是一个好计划”。
