US President Joe Biden says he discussed a Gaza ceasefire during the Group of Seven summit and that he has not lost hope — but that the Hamas terror group has to step up.

Asked if he was confident about reaching a deal, Biden says “no,” adding, “I haven’t lost hope, but it’s going to be tough.”

“Hamas has to move.”
