Trump Proposes Large-Scale Plan to Resolve Conflict in Gaza

The United States abandoned the idea of resettling Palestinians from Gaza and proposed a comprehensive plan to end the conflict, rebuild the Strip, and prepare for the setting up a Palestinian state.

Trump presented the 21-point initiative and discussed it with Arab and Muslim countries at the UN General Assembly. The plan calls for a cessation of hostilities, the withdrawal of Israeli troops, the return of hostages, humanitarian aid, and the restoration of infrastructure.

According to the plan, governance of Gaza will be temporarily transferred to Palestinian technocrats under international supervision, while security will be ensured by a stabilization structure with the participation of the United States and Arab countries.

A key element of the plan was a conditional pardon for Hamas members willing to leave Gaza and their exclusion from future governance of the enclave. It also calls for the disarmament of the group and the launch of programs to neutralize its extremist ideology. The long-term plan calls for the creation of an economic zone and the beginning of political dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians.
