America’s 21 point initiative on Gaza struggle
The US has recently introduced a 21 -point proposal to end the Gaza struggle. This step has been taken at a time when the dialogue between Israel and Hamas after Israeli airstrikes on Doha earlier this month is in deadlock.
Proposal has come amid international pressure
The proposal has come amid growing international pressure to end the war on Israel and America. About 1,200 Israeli people have been killed so far in the war that began with Hamas attack on 7 October 2023. At the same time, Gaza Health Ministry claims that more than 66,000 Palestinians have lost their lives so far.
Gaza is going to be a deal: Trump

This will be an agreement that will end the war.
Trump’s remarks came after the announcement of the 21-Sutriya proposal to end the conflict during meetings with the United Nations General Assembly.

He said, ‘We had a good meeting on Gaza. All the big countries except Israel were involved in this.
Trump’s stand on recognition of Palestinian nation in the United Nations
In his formal speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Trump strongly opposed the unilateral recognition of Palestinian nation. During this, he said that doing so would be like a ‘reward’ for Hamas. Trump reiterated his appeal for the ceasefire and the end of the war. He said, ‘It seems that to promote continuous struggle, some members of this institution are trying to unilaterally recognize the Palestinian nation. This will be a huge reward on their atrocities for Hamas terrorists.
