PARIS, Oct 9 — France on Thursday hosts foreign ministers from Arab and European countries for talks on helping the Palestinians once the Gaza conflict between Israel and Hamas ends, a meeting that comes hours after the two sides agreed a ceasefire deal.<\/p>\n

Israel and Hamas earlier agreed a Gaza ceasefire deal to free the remaining living Israeli hostages held by the Palestinian militant group. It is a major step towards ending a war that has killed tens of thousands of people and unleashed a humanitarian catastrophe.<\/p>\n

The deal brokered through indirect talks in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh came two years after the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas on Israel. That was followed by a relentless Israeli assault on Hamas-ruled Gaza.<\/p>\n

While Europe has strongly supported the ceasefire efforts spearheaded by President Donald Trump, Washington and several European countries are at odds over whether it is the right moment to recognise a Palestinian state.<\/p>\n

Macron, in a September 22 speech at the United Nations, recognised a Palestinian state on the heels of similar announcements by Canada, Portugal and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

The Paris meeting brings together the top diplomats of five key Arab states — Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates — with European counterparts from France, Italy, Germany, Spain and the UK. Turkey and the European Union will also be represented.<\/p>\n

“This meeting will enable work on the implementation of the peace plan and the framework for the ‘day after’ by specifying the aspects of a collective commitment,” said a French foreign ministry statement.<\/p>\n

It would focus on security, governance and reconstruction of the Palestinian territories after the war, it said.<\/p>\n

‘Unnecessary and harmful’ <\/strong><\/p>\n

Before the ceasefire deal was announced, the Paris meeting had angered Israel, further straining French-Israeli relations in the wake of President Emmanuel Macron’s recognition of a Palestinian state, which infuriated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/p>\n

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar had in a message on X denounced the “unnecessary and harmful” meeting “concocted behind Israel’s back” at the sensitive moment of the negotiations in Sharm el-Sheikh.<\/p>\n

The agenda includes the International Stabilisation Force evoked by Trump as part of his peace plan and support for the Palestinian Authority which runs the occupied West Bank, a French diplomatic source said this week, asking not to be named.<\/p>\n

“It is essential to act together and get down to work,” said German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul.<\/p>\n

Berlin has repeatedly said it disagrees with the move by France and other European countries to recognise a Palestinian state now.<\/p>\n

The meeting is due to get underway at 5pm (1500 GMT) followed by a news conference by French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot.<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear if Macron, who on Wednesday met Jordanian Crown Prince Hussein and has hailed the ceasefire deal as providing “great hope” for the region, would attend. — AFP <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
