Gaza Is the Gateway for the Trump Administration to Restart the Abraham Accords
Originally published by Townhall
Little has been heard about the future of Gaza since Egypt on March 4 rolled out its plan, following on President Trump’s announcement a month earlier, to transform Gaza into a “riviera.” Conveniently for Egypt, Hamas’s obstinance in the hostage negotiations and Israel’s current military activities in the area have stolen the spotlight.
But Gaza’s future will return to the spotlight before long. In fact, how Gaza is addressed should reflect a new approach to the Middle East.
That is likely why President Trump made his bold announcement about Gaza on February 4, the same day that he unveiled his “maximum pressure” campaign against the Iranian regime. The announcement’s rollout speaks to a regional vision that promises prosperity to all its inhabitants by, first and foremost, eradicating the Iranian regime’s dangerous influence.
The president’s announcement was a catalyst, driving regional partners to deliver on a plan for Gaza—a topic no one cared to address previously.
