Sorry, please use a different browser. Close Biden: “Let’s go before Ramadan. A ceasefire is likely to be difficult.”

The President of the United States, Joe Biden, said that it would be difficult to achieve a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip before Ramadan, the Islamic fasting month, which begins on the 10th.

President Biden said this after receiving a related question from reporters during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on the 8th local time.

Secretary of State Tony Blinken noted that day, “The ball in the negotiations has moved to Hamas.”

Earlier, it was interpreted that President Biden re-exposed the rift with Israel by saying something to the effect that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should change his mind right after his State of the Union address the previous day, without knowing that the microphone is on. .
