US allies break with Trump to force diplomatic shift on Gaza

Watch: BBC is suppressing the British Foreign Minister about the timing of recognizing the Palestinian state

While Canada joins France and England to plan to recognize the Palestinian state, the US stands closely with Israel – but is there a long -term plan for Trump’s future of Gaza?

One of the statements of history about the Middle East was in Tokyo in November 2023, one of which may be less prominent in global collective memory.

Later, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken put forward a series of principles for “one day” at a meeting of the G7, a group of the world’s most powerful countries.

In the next Israeli attack in Gaza, one month after the Hamas attacks on October 7, he met Israel’s leadership and went there from Tel Aviv.

Blinken listed the conditions for the US military targets and wider conflict of Israel:

The Palestinians are forced to displace. Gaza has no re -processing after the war is over. There is no attempt to block Gaza or siege. A future governance led by Palestine, which includes internationally supported Palestinian authority. No role for Hamas.

Even if the principles objected to many Israel, it aimed to create support from the allies of America in Europe and a part of the Arab world. He remembers Blinken’s Tokyo principles – at least all Trump administration – declared all the Trump administration that immediately shakes.

However, ideas are supported by many US allies traveling to the United Nations in New York this week for a conference requesting a conference to revive the two -state solution.

The conference made headlines as the UK at that time, France, in the future this year under certain circumstances committed to recognizing a Palestinian state. In the afternoon of Wednesday, Canada followed the case. However, the Trump administration boycotted the meeting and saw it as anti -Israel.

US Foreign Ministry spokesman Tammy Bruce, the US State Department spokesman Tammy Bruce, who perceived the conference as a “promotional stunt”, said, “The US will not participate in this insult, but will continue to lead the efforts in the real world to end the war and to offer a lasting peace.” He said.

Now, on the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a gap between the US and its traditional allies has been opened.

This raises a question: Does the Trump administration have a vision for Gaza’s future governance and longer -term lasting peace?

At least it becomes increasingly clear that he is not one of him. At the beginning of this month, I asked Mrs. Bruce what the vision of the administration for the future governance of Gaza, beyond the need to exist Hamas.

He said that “countries, our partners in the region” are trying to implement “new ideas” that the President wanted. “I won’t tell you exactly today.” He said.

Gaza ‘riviera’ – but another plan is uncertain

In February, President Trump announced that the United States will take over the Gaza Strip and that the US and Israel would later be able to build a “Middle East Riviera” in a plan, including the forced displacement of Palestinians in the region, where it means “voluntary” migration.

Although the idea was not clearly possible and would violate international law, it seemed to be Trump’s post -war plan. It would probably be involved in Israel’s military occupation to facilitate it. It was not clear how the continuous rebellions of Hamas or aligned armed groups would be defeated.

Since then, the plan slowly fell silently – at least in the fuller form. On Tuesday, the Palestinians asked for the transport plan, Trump described it as “a concept that really adopted by many people, but at the same time some people did not like it.”

Secondly, it was a reference to the rejection of Arab countries, including other Gulf states, which Saudi Arabia and Trump visited for a luxurious trade tour in gilded palaces.

The management immediately prefers to talk about the subject: release hostages and buying a ceasefire. When Trump was asked to look beyond this, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu postponed it immediately to respond to the Israeli leader during a recent White House visit.

It means an increasing evidence that the Trump administration’s Gaza strategy is going to the Israeli ally and more parallel.

Mr. Netanyahu rejects the Palestinian authority in the future Gaza governance, where their forces are now controlling two -thirds of the region. The extreme right wing of the coalition demands the permanent military occupation, the deportation of the Palestinians and the construction of Jewish settlements.

While Israel and the US are trying to seize the control of food supply for Palestinians within the militarized regions, Israel is also armed by Palestinian militias, which are rival to Hamas. The Integrated Food Safety Stage Classification (IPC), which follows the famine, said that it is the proof of widespread hunger, malnutrition and disease in Gaza. Israel blamed Hamas and the UN for the crisis, but it said it facilitates more help.

Many European countries followed AGHAST. British Foreign Minister David Lammy told me on Wednesday: “We saw the most terrible scenes. The global community is deeply uncomfortable with the shooting and killing of children when they reach for help.”

The hunger seems to be a bending point for European countries – a moral driving force to direct different diplomacy. The internal pressures in England and France were also mounted to recognize a Palestinian state under certain conditions.

Gaza, without a consistent, international -supported plan for future governance, is likely to increase chaos.

Blinken was aware of this risk since the beginning of the war, and enabled them to register for a future plan, including parts of the Palestinian authority and the Arab countries that provide security forces among the Arab states. He also intervened at least three times and forced Israel to get more help to Gaza, and twice used the threat of restriction to specify US weapons.

There has been no pressure by the Trump administration that has accelerated weapons to Israel since January.

The United States left Gaza’s long -term plan what a strategic gap was. Europeans working with Gulf Arab districts tried to fill this week.

For them, without effective assistance, governance and a long -term peace plan, the effect on the ground will only be disrupted. They called this week to support the Emergency aid intervention, to support Palestinian authority and to revive things towards a two -state solution – even if the US was not registered.

It is increasing the convention of the great Western powers that only will recognize a Palestinian state at the end of the negotiations between Israel and Palestinians. More importantly, the united statements meant that Saudi Arabia, the leader of the Arab and Muslim world, participated in the condemnation of Hamas and participated in the call for disarmament.

They are now hoping that their movements supported by Arab countries will return to a more established diplomatic process.

However, the conferences that will meet again in September are working against everything. Super power seat is empty.
