Abbas's correspondence, made public on Tuesday, comes ahead of a U.N. conference set to explore the possibility of a Palestinian state, which Macron has indicated may depend on certain conditions, including Hamas's disarmament. The letter reiterated Abbas's condemnation of Hamas for the October 7 attack on Israel, which resulted in significant casualties, and emphasized the need for Palestinian security forces to assume control over Gaza with assistance from Arab and international allies.
Despite decades of conflict, Abbas's administration has faced significant challenges in reconciling with Hamas, reflecting a deeper divided Palestinian landscape that complicates potential peace talks. Looking ahead, the response from Israeli authorities and international allies to Abbas's proposition remains uncertain, posing further questions about the feasibility of a two-state solution.
