Statement issued by the State of Palestine on efforts to end the war in Gaza

RAMALLAH, September 30, 2025, (WAFA) - The State of Palestine welcomes the sincere and determined efforts of President Donald J. Trump to end the war on Gaza and affirms its confidence in his ability to find a path toward peace. It also underscores the importance of the partnership with the United States in achieving peace in the region.

"It renews its joint commitment to work with the United States, regional states, and partners to end the war on Gaza through a comprehensive agreement that ensures the sufficient delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, the release of hostages and prisoners, the establishment of mechanisms to protect the Palestinian people, guarantee respect for the ceasefire and security for both sides, prevent annexation of land, stop the displacement of Palestinians, end unilateral actions that violate international law, release withheld Palestinian tax revenues, and lead to a full Israeli withdrawal.

This would also ensure the unification of Palestinian land and institutions in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, end the occupation, and open the path toward a just peace based on the two-state solution, with the independent and sovereign State of Palestine living side by side with the State of Israel in security, peace, and good neighborliness, in accordance with international legitimacy.

Reaffirming the commitments undertaken by the State of Palestine at the Internationa Conference in New York regarding the completion of the Palestinian reform program—including holding presidential and parliamentary elections within one year after the end of the war, and ensuring that all candidates in the elections adhere to the political program, international commitments, of the PLO, international legitimacy, and the principle of one system, one law, and one legitimate Palestinian security force.

We have affirmed our desire for a modern, democratic, and non-militarized Palestinian state, committed to pluralism and the peaceful transfer of power.

This also includes the commitment to implement the program for the development of curricula in line with UNESCO standards within two years, the abolition of laws and regulations under which payments are made to the families of prisoners and martyrs, and the establishment of a unified social welfare system subject to international auditing. The State of Palestine affirms its readiness to engage positively and constructively with the United States and all parties in order to achieve peace, security, and stability for the peoples of the region."
