Qatar's Diplomatic Dilemma: Expelling Hamas Amidst Gaza Ceasefire Talks
TL;DR Summary
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Qatar to convey a warning to Hamas, threatening expulsion from Doha if they did not deliver on a hostage and ceasefire deal to halt the war in Gaza, as negotiations between Hamas and Israel stalled. The message was delivered during a meeting in Washington on March 5, and comes amid frustrations over the slow progress in the negotiations. Qatar, a critical partner in ceasefire efforts, has been exerting pressure on Hamas, with talks set to resume in Doha. While some progress has been made, it remains unclear how much leverage Hamas's political wing in Doha has over the group's militant faction in Gaza.
