Trump Expresses Possibility of Return to War in the Middle East Under Certain Conditions
Former U.S.
President Donald Trump made a bold statement regarding the potential resumption of military actions in Gaza, emphasizing that the United States might authorize Israel to resume hostilities if Hamas fails to adhere to the ceasefire conditions.
In an interview with CNN, Trump declared that he is prepared to instruct Israeli forces to return to the streets of Gaza immediately upon his order.
His comments came amid accusations from Israel that Hamas did not fulfill the terms of the hostage exchange agreement during the Gaza ceasefire.
Trump highlighted that the situation involving the release of prisoners and the remains of the deceased remains complex but assured that it will be resolved swiftly.
He further mentioned that the U.S.
actively supports efforts to locate and recover the bodies, which might be concealed beneath debris after two years of conflict.
The former president also speculated that Hamas is currently ‘cleansing’ territory of bandit groups, possibly executing innocent Palestinians and eliminating criminal elements.
Additionally, the issue of Ukrainian nationals held hostage by Hamas has been raised in diplomatic discussions.
Notably, on October 13, Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, and the USA signed a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, serving as a step toward regional stabilization and conflict resolution.
Many questions remain open, including the promises of establishing an independent Palestinian state, which is subject to extensive debate.
Whether this plan can be realized depends on future political will and the complex dynamics of the region.
