‘Surrender to ransom demands’: Donald Trump condemns recognition of Palestinian state by West; warns it 'rewards Hamas'
Donald Trump criticized Western nations' recognition of a Palestinian state, deeming it a reward for Hamas's "horrible atrocities." He argued such recognitions embolden the group, fuel conflict, and distract from securing hostage releases. Trump, deeply involved in ceasefire efforts, accused Hamas of obstructing peace and is set to meet with Muslim-majority leaders to discuss the Gaza crisis and post-war governance.
