Details
U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is considering a post-war plan for the Gaza Strip based on ideas from Israel and the United Arab Emirates.
This was reported to Axios by US officials.
The plan envisages sending a temporary international mission to the Gaza Strip to provide humanitarian assistance, establish law and order, and lay the groundwork for governance. The UAE has offered to send military personnel to Gaza as part of an international force.
Also, several officials in the White House and the State Department are concerned that the plan “marginalizes Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and his government.” This is what Israel and the UAE insist on in the short term.
The role of the Palestinian Authority is the biggest disagreement between Israel and the Emirates in this discussion.
Context
The Biden administration, Israel, and the UAE have been discussing various ideas for possible plans for several months, according to U.S., Israeli, and Emirati officials.
The Emirates initially proposed that the plan be based on an agreement between political leaders on the decision to create two states.
Israeli officials said that Netanyahu rejected the involvement of the Palestinian authorities in Gaza and the vision of a two-state solution.
Instead, the Emirates want the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority to appoint a Palestinian to lead the crossing through Gaza.
