McGurk on Hamas Releasing Hostage List: It ‘Opened Up the Space’ for Gaza Ceasefire Deal

RUSH EXCERPT:

MCGURK: "We spent two hours with Bibi Netanyahu and said, now, after the Lebanon deal, this is the catalyst to move back to the ceasefire deal in Gaza and the hostage releases. And it wasn‘t until the end of December, Wolf, that Hamas, for the first time agreed to the list of hostages to be released in the hostage deal, and without Hamas agreeing to that, you can‘t have a deal. And that actually opened up the space to get this done. It is because of the work we‘ve done in the region over months and months, and then the painstaking process just over the last few weeks."
