Statement by President von der Leyen on the release of hostages and on the agreement ending the war in Gaza

The return of the Israeli hostages is a moment of pure joy for those families. And a moment of relief for the entire world. It means that a page can be turned. A new chapter can begin. Europe fully supports the peace plan brokered by the United States, Qatar, Egypt, and Türkiye.

The return of the Israeli hostages is a moment of pure joy for those families.

And a moment of relief for the entire world.

It means that a page can be turned. A new chapter can begin.

Europe fully supports the peace plan brokered by the United States, Qatar, Egypt, and Türkiye. 

The finalisation of the agreement ending the war today in Sharm el-Sheikh will be a historical milestone.

We stand ready to contribute to its success with all tools at our disposal.

In particular, by providing support on governance and for the reform of the Palestinian Authority.

We will be an active force within the Palestinian Donors Group. And we will provide EU funding for the reconstruction of Gaza.
