"What were these concessions? They were predominantly related to denying Turkiye any presence in the Gaza stabilisation force and to US approval for an Israeli strike on Iran. Netanyahu failed on both counts. Trump specifically referred to his good relationship with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and spoke of Bibi's respect for him, too. With regard to Iran, Trump mentioned Iran's willingness to make a deal and provided clear guidelines for American involvement while saying nothing about authorising a solo Israeli operation."
"When he spoke of the disarmament of Hamas, he said that it must happen or nearly 60 states will make it happen. Hamas has already agreed to disarm if the process is carried out by a Palestinian-led force. Trump said nothing to suggest that he does not agree with Hamas's logic, especially when one considers the refusal of most participating countries to carry out a violent disarmament of the group."
Netanyahu visited the United States seeking concessions to exclude Turkiye from a Gaza stabilization force and to obtain US approval for an Israeli strike on Iran, but he received neither. Trump emphasized his good relationship with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and noted Netanyahu's respect for Erdogan. Trump mentioned Iran's willingness to negotiate and outlined American involvement without endorsing an Israeli unilateral strike. Trump said Gaza reconstruction would begin soon and insisted Hamas must disarm or nearly 60 states will enforce it. Hamas agreed to disarm under a Palestinian-led force while many countries refuse violent disarmament. Trump did not tie Stage II to return of the last hostage body.
