This week of US President Donald Trump’s Gulf states – Saudi Arabia, Qatar and United Arab Emirates – was closely followed in Israel.
Trump did not visit Israel – a snub, which is played by Israeli officials, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has already visited the White House twice – and a growing feeling between Israeli’s commentator was not quite right.
It comes at a time when Israel is facing increasing criticism and separation from other countries during the war in Gaza.
Former senior Israeli Diplomat Alon Pinks, now a columnist for the Israeli newspaper, now Israeli newspaper, now to marginalize Israel, Trump, Trump last month and definitely last week, last week, last week, last week, last week, last week, in a series of tricks and statements, Trump was not only shocked, but not only the Netanyahu was kept on the nettle Was. Hair netTold DW.
Meanwhile, Israel has intensified its aerial attack in Gaza, a possible sign that it is expanding its aggressive in Gaza.
Heavy strikes and tank movements were reported on Friday at North Gaza. According to local health officials, at least 90 people were killed in attacks in Gaza, including children. The Israeli army has issued more withdrawal orders in several AEAS, forcing many people to escape in an area that are equally unsafe.
During the 7 October attack, more than 200 people were taken as hostages in the Hamas-Saset Gaza Strip. Twenty -eight hostages are still in Gaza. At least 21 of them are believed to be considered alive.
In January, Hamas and Israel agreed in the first phase of a ceasefire, in which 33 Israeli hostages were released in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. However, in a second phase, never interacted and in March, Israel broke the ceasefire, vowen to erase Hamas.
Has Trump and Netanyahu fall out?
During its Gulf visit this week, Trump concludes $ 142 billion (€ 127 billion) arms deal with Saudi Arabia with an investment deal of $ 600 billion, which increases the technical capacity of the Gulf State, which may be a threat to Israeli’s own technical and military skills.
In April, Netanyahu was invited to an immediate meeting in Washington. Netanyahu said he felt that he could convince Trump to remove Taff on Israeli imports, but he was not. Instead, Trump surprised Netanyahu, when he announced a direct US Iran talks about Iran’s nuclear program.
This was rapidly opposite with the first meeting of two leaders in the US in February, when Trump spoke to Netanyahu about “Gaza Riviera” and forced displacement of his population.
Another decision that created a stir in Israel was Trump on 6 May that the US resumed a truss with the Houthi Group in Yemen, exactly two days after the rebels launched a missile at Israel’s main international airport, Ben Gurian. By the time the Gaza war continues, the Hothis vowed to launch missiles in Israel.
Israeli commentator Pinks suggested that Trump “did not like Netanyahu’s” Iran and Gaza continuously deception and did not like deception. “
Trump practice a very transaction foreign policy, Pinkus explained. “Netanyahu can only do two things that he has refused to give so far: a ceasefire in Gaza, which Netanyahu violated Himola in March – [perhaps] He misrepresented Trump’s laziness or was disappointed as some kind of green light to attack again.
And the other is Iran, “Pinkus continued.” While Trump keeps saying that he wants an agreement with Iran and he would pursue an agreement, Netanyahu lives with his combative rhetoric. ,
Others are more alert and say that Trump creates a basis for regional changes.
“I hear voices in Israel that he has completely sidelined Netanyahu, but I think it is more complicated,” Yaki Dayan, a former Israeli Mahavaniya General in the US, and now a frequent commentator on the Israeli-American relations in the local media, stated by DW. “I think he [Trump] All thesis is taking into account the issues that are highly imported to Israel, with Syrian and Saudi. ,
But Israel should have joined more, Yaki said. Dayan said, “We could have been in the central position to shape the new Middle East, as Trump is now doing.” But, he says, “I think one of what Trump wanted from Israel is to end the war in Gaza, who is not giving Netanyahu.”
Netanyahu is unlikely to do the ether of those things, however, Pink argued. “If he has not thought on two issues, A, he does not have [governing] The alliance, and B, they do not have a revival to be the Prime Minister. ,
What does this mean for this region?
A lot wants to depend on the next development in Gaza now. A new round of interactions appears to falter in Qatar to finalize a new deal between Israel and Hamas.
Meanwhile, Israel has increased its military aggressive and Netanyahu has repeatedly vowed not to end the war, which is a major demand for Hamas. The Israeli cabinet recently approved a plan to approve a plan in the South of Palestin Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Palestinian Pale Palestinian Pale Palestinian Pale Palestinian Pale Palestinian Palestinians.
And while Israel has supported a new human, controversial assistance scheme proposed by the US, it has not raised the destruction blockade on Gaza. Since March, people from small areas have been denied food, medicine, shelter and fuel with disastrous consequences. Earlier this week, international food security experts warned that Gaza was at high risk of famine in the coming weeks.
During his visit to Qatar, Trump said, “I have concepts for Gaza that I think are great. Make it a freedom field, let the United States join and make it just a freedom field.”
The conflict in Gaza prevents Trump from mediation by the Trump administration before a series of bilateral agreements between the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Israel, to normalize the ambition between his long -held ambitions, to normalize between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Nevertheless, despite concerns over Trump-Naityahu relationships, there is no indication at present that the US would have pressured Israel to stop military aggressive if the thesis is the latest dialogue fails.
Dayan said, “War bothers Trump.
And Trump Hefelfa has said that development in the region is “good for Israel.”
Dayan said, “There are many things that we should worry – with a huge military deal with Saudi and Iranian issues,” said Dayan. “But at the same time, when Trump is now re -shaping the Middle East, it is better for Israel that he is re -shaping the Middle East and not Chinese or Russian or someone else.”
