Regarding the possibility of releasing prominent Palestinian prisoner Marwan al-Barghouthi, the US President said: I will make a decision regarding the possibility of his release to lead Gaza after the war.
He repeated his claims about Iran, claiming again that he had eliminated the nuclear threat and that now there is a different Middle East!
Trump claimed: We will intervene if Hamas does not disarm, but the movement has agreed to this!” The war in Gaza is over and Netanyahu must accept the deal.
Trump continued: I like Mahmoud Abbas, but he probably wouldn’t be the right person to run Gaza after the war. He claimed that Saudi Arabia would join the normalization agreements before the end of this year.
Trump said: I told Netanyahu that he couldn’t fight the world. He could fight individual wars, but the world was against him. Netanyahu had to stop because otherwise the world would stop him. Israel was losing ground badly.
