Biden said that Hamas must be destroyed

US President Joe Biden said in an interview with CBS that Hamas should be completely destroyed, but not the Palestinian Authority.

"Yes, I think so," Biden said, answering the host's question about whether he believes that Hamas should be completely destroyed. "But it is necessary that there be a Palestinian authority. A path is needed for the existence of a Palestinian State. The path called the "two-state solution" has been the US approach for decades. This will create an independent nation next to Israel for the five million Palestinians who live in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank," Biden said.
