France & Saudi Plot To DISARM HAMAS? Secret Plan To Strip Weapons, Let Group Stay In Power Exposed

France and Saudi Arabia are working behind the scenes on a plan to disarm Hamas and transition it into a purely political entity. Saudi officials have reportedly engaged Hamas leadership, while France’s direct role remains murky. The initiative could allow Hamas to retain limited political influence in future Palestinian governance to encourage disarmament. Tensions are rising between Israeli PM Netanyahu and French President Macron, as France co-chairs a UN conference on Palestinian recognition. Macron has also condemned Israel’s Gaza policy and hinted at EU sanctions amid rising Western criticism. #Hamas #France #SaudiArabia #MiddleEastPolitics #Israel #Gaza #UNConference #Disarmament #Palestine #Macron #Netanyahu #PeacePlan #Geopolitics #HamasPolitics #HamasDisarmament #TwoStateSolution #UN #SaudiHamasTalks #IsraelPalestine #GlobalDiplomacy #MiddleEastCrisis #MacronVsNetanyahu #GazaCrisis #HumanitarianAid #FranceUN #SaudiDiplomacy #PoliticalTransition #GazaConflict #MiddleEastUpdate #WesternAllies #HamasTransition Also Read Hamas Leader Muhammad Sinwar Killed In Israel's Air Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-leader-muhammad-sinwar-killed-in-israels-air-strike-4156915.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Launches Hamas-Style Missile Attack on Jammu; All Intercepted By Indian Air Defence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-launches-hamas-style-missile-attack-on-jammu-all-intercepted-by-indian-air-defence-4147919.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~
