Trump’s Gaza Negotiations Strain U.S.-Israel Relations

The Trump administration’s direct talks with Hamas and independent actions are raising tensions with Netanyahu’s government.

• The Trump administration has engaged in direct talks with Hamas, a significant departure from long-standing U.S. policy against negotiating with terrorist organizations.
• White House envoy Adam Boehler has proposed a truce framework, including a potential 5-10 year ceasefire, which has drawn criticism for undermining Israeli positions.
• Israel has halted food, medicine, and fuel deliveries to Gaza, worsening humanitarian conditions and raising concerns from international organizations.
• Netanyahu’s government is reportedly unhappy with the U.S. bypassing Israeli input in negotiations, further straining the relationship between the two allies.
• The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas remains fragile, with no clear resolution on key issues like hostages and Gaza’s governance post-conflict.
