US President-elect Donald Trump expects to act as the main negotiator in the process of resolving the conflict in the Middle East. This was reported by the Axios portal with reference to the press secretary of the politician's campaign headquarters, Caroline Leavitt.
President Trump will act as the chief American negotiator and will work to bring home the innocent people held hostage by the radical Palestinian movement Hamas,” the portal quotes Leavitt as saying. At the same time, according to her, Trump intends to tighten sanctions after coming to power regarding Iran, as well as to intensify US efforts in the fight against terrorism and support for Israel.
As the portal emphasizes, some Israeli officials and families of American citizens held hostage hope that Trump will be able to “convince Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in the Gaza Strip in exchange for the release of the hostages,” which current US President Joe Biden “failed to achieve.” .
According to Axios, some Israeli officials believe Trump has "much more influence over Netanyahu than Biden." At the same time, according to the portal, security forces in Israel are asking Netanyahu to “soften his position,” since Hamas most likely will not give up its demand for the withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip.
