6:02 pm
good to see you again. after this 2nd day of talks, do we know what is contained in this so called bridging proposal? now we don't have really any detail. it said that it's closing the gaps that it's based on an old proposal that's on the table since it made basically this proposal . we have uh, several spaces which share pundits being in prison. this is where your hostages, it's changed 1st for 6 weeks fees via then for permanency, spy it, this proposal is already rejected it because they didn't accept the idea of a permanent ceasefire. and a, how much was it to have a for it was drawn on these really on me from because us to know what means here. closing the gaps, we really don't know yet, but it seems to be that there's enough in it says to all parties we meet again, end of next week in pile. so parties meeting again in cairo, is it too early to say what kind of reaction we've seen from us and because really
6:03 pm
side to what's been discussed so far or yeah, i think maybe it is too early because it is really delegation is leaving a lot of no fx, what is read? well they have to of course, bring this back to these really primary stuff in there. mean this and you always going to meet how so on monday and the secretary state the underneath the blinking . and of course, how much has to bring back the proposal to and the testing what in gaza in order also to see what they say about it is a 1st statement. you know, she, by almost saying that this is not what was agreed upon until now, but that, as i said, there's an inefficient state that really have to wait what the dealership it says and starts to say about this. so so waiting as you say from that official statement from the, from us leadership talks are due to continue next week in cairo. can you just spell out for us a little bit more where we think we're going to see these remaining obstacles?
6:04 pm
well, um, i mean, what is interesting is the pressure, the pressure that it's done. now it may be, i think by the us it's interesting that this was, this was the one who blocked beetle ceasefire ideas in the ways you can, would you tell us is for many months now it seems that a ceasefire cannot come fast enough for the us and of course that has maybe 2 reason the is this year of a really escalation in the region with the wrong with his full and so in level of interest, the courses in gym and that's what your end is the upcoming us evictions. i think this is why the, this is trying now very, very hard to bring all the sites together because they need this successfully. as i said, we don't know. i'm to know what, closing the gaps here really means by substance. we have heard quite an optimistic tone coming from the u. s. i must say at the national set, separate, excuse me,
