When asked by Israeli media if there will always be an Israeli military presence in Gaza, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sqaar said: “My working assumption is that in the foreseeable future, only we can ensure our security.”
According to the newspaper, he also clarified that this does not mean the country will reestablish Jewish settlements in Gaza.
“Although I opposed the disengagement [from Gush Katif, the Israeli settlements in the Gaza Strip in 2005], the goals set by the cabinet do not include such plans,” he was quoted as saying.
