The meeting, which Israel’s UN representative Danny Danon was also present for, took place at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem.
President Isaac Herzog met with the United States United Nations representative, Mike Walz, on Wednesday to discuss the implementation of the US-backed Israel-Gaza ceasefire deal.
The meeting, which Israel’s UN ambassador, Danny Danon, was also present for, took place at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem.
“I want to thank you for supporting Israel with clear moral clarity,” Herzog said to Walz, the Government Press Office confirmed. “We want to be able to change the trajectory so the world will be able to understand the strategic importance of Israel.”
Herzog also emphasized the importance of Walz’s role in navigating the implementation of a UN Security Council resolution that established the International Stabilization Force (ISF) to help demilitarize and rebuild Gaza.
“We hope that the process will not take too long, because in the Middle East… rogue elements don’t rest for a moment. Iran is trying to regroup, and its proxies are trying to regroup, and we have to show momentum to implement a resolution,” Herzog continued.

The most positive resolution for stability in the region
Walz responded that it was “an honor” to meet with Herzog, sharing his thoughts that the need to establish the ISF was “probably the most positive resolution we’ve seen for Israel, for stability in the region.”
Walz also announced that US President Donald Trump may soon make announcements regarding the establishment of a Gaza "Board of Peace."
“The key components of that are a technocratic authority of Palestinians to get the water, the gas, the sewage, to get those basic services going again in Gaza. Of course, a funding mechanism for the owners to pay for it, and then the international stabilization force,” Walz explained.
“What has been clear, and I want to be clear, is that Hamas has to go. President Trump has been clear that it’s going to happen the easy way or the hard way, but there will not be any more Hamas,” Walz declared.
