JAKARTA - The White House is watching the progress of diplomatic negotiations in Gaza or Lebanon. The US recognizes negotiations towards a ceasefire will not take place soon.
"I can't sit here today and tell you that the negotiations will restart in Doha or Cairo or anywhere else," said US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby.
The statement comes after ceasefire negotiations have stalled for weeks. Both President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris renewed calls to restart negotiations following the assassination of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
US officials have held several initial talks, with Israel and continue to engage in intensive diplomacy to see what can be done to try to find a way to a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
The US has also expressed a strong desire to see what can be done to find diplomatic routes to repatriate the hostages.
US envoy Amos Hochstein was in Beirut on Monday, Kirby said watching what might have been in an attempt to find a meaningful ceasefire.
