There is a saying in Historical Records of Xiang Yu's Chronicles, that is, "Nowadays, people are knives, and I am fish". It is often used as a metaphor to say that the power of life and death is in the hands of others, and you are in the position of being slaughtered.

In fact, this is the current situation for the people of Gaza and Hamas. Although the Gaza ceasefire agreement to end the war was signed at the peace summit held in Egypt, we all know that as long as Israel exists, Hamas's mission will exist; as long as Netanyahu does not want to liquidate himself, the turmoil caused by Israel in the Middle East will not stop.

At the same time, China, Russia, Iran, and Israel did not choose to participate in the peace summit held in Egypt on October 13th, local time. So why did these countries not choose to participate? Can Gaza really achieve complete peace because of this peace summit?

Why did these countries not participate in the Egyptian Peace Summit?

On October 13, Trump visited Israel and Egypt, attended the Middle East Peace Summit, attended by more than 30 countries and international organizations, and signed a joint declaration with Egypt, Qatar and Turkey, pledging to continue to push for the Second Phase of the Gaza War agreement, while also seeking greater peace in the Middle East.

It is worth noting that the summit will be attended by more than 30 countries and international organizations, including the Secretary-General of the United Nations, as well as the national flags of Japan and India.

However, although it is very important in terms of lineup, China and Russia, as the five permanent members, did not participate, nor did Israel and Iran, two important parties.

Then, the question arises. What are the reasons why these countries do not come to participate? It is worth mentioning that also on October 13, U.S. Treasury Secretary Basent said in an interview that "China's recent measures to strengthen rare earth controls may be an effort" to cover up peace in Gaza." Obviously, Trump does not intend to let China intervene in the Middle East peace process to avoid stealing Trump's limelight. This is probably the reason why Russia did not participate.

Netanyahu, who represents Israel, was not present, on the one hand, warned by Erdogan (sources in the Turkish Foreign Ministry say this), and on the other hand, Netanyahu himself is aware of it.

In fact, Netanyahu was ready to attend at first, as Trump agreed when he was in Israel, but he resigned before the summit due to a religious holiday.

It can be said that he did not go very wisely, to know that most of these more than 30 countries and international organizations have not established relations with Israel, most of the behavior of Israel is also very unhappy, how embarrassed he would be if Netanyahu went and shoot and shake his hand.

In addition, Turkish Daily Morning News that President Erdogan's aircraft before landing in Egypt, he warned that if Netanyahu attended the summit, the aircraft would immediately head back to Ankara.

As for why Iran didn't participate, the reason given by the spokesman of their Ministry of Foreign Affairs is as follows, that is, "we comprehensively evaluated the pros and cons of each decision to participate and not to participate, and finally made a decision that can safeguard national interests and officially announced (not to participate)".

Peace in Gaza is far away

In fact, Iran¡¯s non-participation can also be understood, because the peace agreement contains a provision that Hamas must disarm, so that Iran¡¯s strategic backbone in the region¡¯s ¡°resistance arc¡± will be weakened.

However, Reuters on October 14 that Trump had told Hamas that they had to disarm, otherwise they would be forced to take arms, and Hamas also agreed to Trump¡¯s request.

Of course, Hamas released the last batch of surviving Israeli detainees from Gaza, but they did not publicly promise to disarm, as mentioned above by Reuters and Trump.

How to put it? A netizen once said, "As long as Israel still exists, the mission of Hamas will still exist." In fact, this sentence is quite true, because even though the peace agreement has been signed now, real peace in Gaza is still far away.

No, the Israeli government said on October 14 local time that fuel and natural gas were not allowed into the Gaza Strip except for specific humanitarian infrastructure uses.

In addition, they also said that "the United Nations has been informed that starting from the 15th, the number of aid trucks that can enter the Gaza Strip every day will be half of the previously agreed number."

¡°Generally agreed on the number,¡± it can be seen from this phrase, the so-called peace agreement is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Israel at all, because for Netanyahu, provoking chaos in the Middle East is the root of his stability.

A great man once proposed that "power comes from the barrel of a gun." This wise saying still applies to Hamas, because true peace is achieved through struggle and is never achieved through "charity" from others.
