The Palestinian Hamas Resistance movement rejected the statements of US National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby who said that the future of Gaza, after the Zionist aggression against it, cannot include Hamas.

Hamas declared today in a statement, "The American statement and other positions similar to those belonging to the administration of President Biden are blatant interference in the affairs of the Palestinian people and a continuation of the custodianship approach it uses to maintain its control over the decisions and choices of the people." 

The movement stressed that it is "an authentic component of the Palestinian people who are steadfast in the face of the occupation and Nazism supported by the American administration, and we will not allow them or anyone else to impose tutelage over the free people of Palestine, who have the final say in choosing their leadership and determining their fate."

Yesterday, Kirby said in a press conference at the White House that his country "also rejects any role for Hamas and its leaders in any form of governance in Gaza after the war."

Kirby told reporters told US President Joe Biden "still believes in the promise and the possibility of a two-state solution."

During a briefing at the White House on January 20 after Biden's call with Israeli occupation's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Kirby emphasized Biden's firm belief that the most appropriate course of action moving forward is "a two-state solution". 

"Good friends and allies can have those kinds of candid, forthright discussions and we do," added Kirby.

The recent conversation also covered the remaining US captives held by Hamas since October 7, as per Kirby.

Meanwhile, he still maintained the US position against a ceasefire in Gaza, as he explicitly said, "The US still opposes a general ceasefire in Gaza," despite a death toll surpassing 25,700, in addition to 63,740 injured.

Furthermore, Kirby has stated that the White House is currently in the process of gathering additional information regarding Mexico and Chile's request for an investigation into potential war crimes by "Israel". He also mentioned that, at present, the White House sees no indications suggesting deliberate war crimes.

"The US backs humanitarian pauses," he claimed, "but thinks a ceasefire will benefit Hamas."
