US President Donald Trump said he did not tell Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop being negative about the hostage agreement. “Hamas agrees on things that are very important,” the US president added, according to the Reuters agency. He also noted that he was expecting an agreement on Gaza soon. “I think we make tremendous progress.”

Asked if the US has put some red lines, such as the request for Hamas disarmament, Trump replied: “So if some things are not satisfied? We won’t do it, but I think we’re doing very well. “

It is recalled that Axios reported on Sunday that when Hamas responded with a “yes, but” to President Trump’s peace proposal for Gaza on Friday, Trump phoned Netanyahu to discuss what he considered good news. Netanyahu had a different perception. “Bibi told Trump that this is not something we should” celebrate “and that it doesn’t mean anything,” Axios said, citing an American official who knows what they were discussing. Trump responded strongly: “I don’t know why you’re always so in …. a negative. This is a victory. Receive it, ”according to Axios. According to Axios, a second US official also confirmed the dialogue

In the meantime, Trump also said he spoke with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Possible thanks to Gisley Maxwell?

Heralded a trip to Brazil

He also spoke of very good telephone contact with his Brazilian counterpart Luis Inasio Lula da Silva, and also noted that he would soon travel to Brazil.

It is noted that the US president said earlier that he had a “very good” telephone conversation with the Brazilian counterpart, stating that they were mainly discussing financial and commercial issues. “We will have further discussions and find ourselves in the not very distant future, both in Brazil and in the United States,” Trump wrote in a post on the Truth Social platform.

Earlier, the Brazilian Presidency’s announcement said that the two leaders had a “friendly” discussion of about 30 minutes, during which Lula asked Trump to lift duties on Brazilian products exported to the US.

Since August 6th, a significant part of Brazilian exports to the US has been subject to a 50%duty, in terms of retaliation for the “witch hunt” denounced by Trump at the expense of former Brazilian President Zaich Bolsonaru. US pressures did not prevent Bolsonar from conviction at a 27 -year prison for attempted coup after his defeat in the 2022 elections.

According to the Brazilian Presidency’s announcement, Lula referred, inter alia, to the possibility of a tet-a-tete with Trump during the Southeast Summit of the Southeast Asia States (ASEAN), which will take place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the end of October. Brazilian president, the strongest economy in Latin America, also appeared “willing to travel to the US” for a meeting with his US counterpart.

The two leaders had a brief dialogue on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, with Donald Trump finding that there was “excellent chemistry” with each other and that the Brazilian president seemed “sympathetic”. For his part, Lula had expressed optimism that in a future meeting with Trump “everything will be resolved” and “Brazil and the US will live again.”
