00:00I want to come back to negotiations in just a minute and also to elections and who gets to choose what role Hamas plays.
00:07But I just want to pick up on one thing you mentioned there about direct talks.
00:11Is that confirmation that Hamas has been and continues to be in direct talks with the U.S. administration, perhaps including Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff?
00:23Yes and no. We were in some stations in direct talks with the American administrations.
00:35And we have met with some representative of the American administrations.
00:41One of the well-known cases was Adam Buller and his team.
00:47And in some cases, we have talked to the American administration through the mediators, mainly the Qataris.
00:53So there has been direct talks with the American administration, but yes, there was direct talks with the American administration.
01:02Again, Adam Buller was one of the cases, but there are other stations or cases where we also were in direct talks with the Americans.
