Diplomats and analysts have been left guessing whether Trump truly covets the war-ravaged Gaza Strip or was threatening a takeover to extract concessions from Arab states. Trump’s secretary of state, Marco Rubio, suggested it was the latter and that Arab states should make a counteroffer.
With the Egyptian plan gaining momentum, it appears Trump has been swayed.
During a visit to Israel on Monday, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said there was “very little appetite” for the US to take over Gaza “in any way, shape or form”.
I also wouldnt trust any promises by Trump in the slightest. Wait for actual facts, not empty promises.
