DAVOS, Switzerland, January 21. Israel hopes to
see historic changes in Gaza similar to those in Lebanon and Syria,
the President of Israel Isaac Herzog said at the World Economic
Forum in Davos, Trend reports.
“We see historic changes in Lebanon and Syria. We hope that the
same changes will take place in the Gaza Strip. This will require
significant efforts,” Herzog noted.
Referring to the Gaza agreement, the Israeli President
emphasized that the key to success was related to the issue of
hostage release.
“Reaching this agreement was incredibly difficult and painful.
Today I met with the Prime Minister of Qatar to thank him for his
invaluable efforts, as well as the other mediators – Egypt, the US,
and both the outgoing and new administrations. Many of our hostages
remain in Gaza. We pray that they will return home as soon as
possible as agreed,” Herzog stated.
