Qatar's prime minister says talks for a truce and hostage exchange deal in Gaza have regained momentum following the election of Donald Trump as US president. The Qatari prime minister stated that there were 'some differences' in the approach to an agreement by the outgoing and incoming US administrations, but there was no disagreement on the goal to end the war. Qatar, the United States, and Egypt have been involved in unsuccessful negotiations for a Gaza truce and hostage release after 14 months of war. The Qatari prime minister expressed hope that a deal could be achieved soon and brushed off the prospect of Qatar facing greater pressure over its political bureau for Hamas.
