As time passes after the announcement of an end to the war that the first ones started with Israel, there continue to be fluctuations – or nuances – regarding what was transferred by each party during the early hours of Sunday to Monday. Within the framework of the declarations of the G7 summit and the bilateral meetings between different countries, nor are they obliged to, the figure of 300 million dollars to Tehran as compensation for the destruction caused.
It is not the only twist that Trump has carried out this Tuesday, who has been asked about one of the biggest unknowns that remains in the air after this agreement that will still have to be developed with new negotiations and phases that address issues such as the complete reopening of transit in the Strait of Hormuz – Tehran has also denied the immediate opening that Trump boasted – or the management of the destruction of Iranian enriched uranium. He has been asked about a military campaign whose objective included ending the Iranian authorities and the ayatollahs: .
In recent weeks, Trump has evoked scenes of breakups such as his ‘bromance’ with tycoon Elon Musk, but with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who within the framework of his country’s domestic politics finds himself cornered by the opposition, but also even by the far-right parties of the coalition that demand more toughness in Lebanon. In that context, and with an appointment at the polls even before the US midterm elections, . Today, for the first time in a long time, Trump has toned down the harshness of his statements against Netanyahu.
Trump’s ‘soufflé’ of anger: from “everyone hates Israel for this” to “he should be more responsible”
The truth is that Trump was surprised by the leak of statements from a telephone conversation of his with Netanyahu that occurred after Israel continued its bombing of Lebanese territory, an issue that ended up provoking the first Iranian attack in history without an Israeli or American attack against them having previously occurred. , you would be in prison if it weren’t for me. I’m saving your ass. “Everyone hates Israel for this!” he posted Axios of that call.
That string of insults didn’t seem to have any effect either. And, the closer the positions for an agreement seemed to get, the IDF returned to bombing the suburbs of Beirut. Trump recognized that this blow once again postponed the agreement that he wanted yes or yes for last Sunday, when he turned 80. “Bibi doesn’t have a fucking shred of judgment. I’ve already told him: I’m not at all happy with his attack on Beirut,” the US president told reporters.
Today, the scenario was a little different, accompanied by the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, in a bilateral meeting outside of the G7 summit meetings. “I am not satisfied with the way Israel has acted in Lebanon and with Hezbollah. They should have been able to finish the job, but this just drags on endlessly, and when that happens, it projects a negative image on the big deal, which is the deal with Iran,” he said, downplaying the fact that the Lebanese killed by Israeli bombings are close to 3,800.
“Israel has been fighting Hezbollah for too long, too many people are dying, and it is not necessary to demolish an apartment building every time someone is searched, there are a lot of people in those apartments and not all of them are Hezbollah,” Trump has defended, also ignoring that Israel signed an alleged ceasefire with the Lebanese Government that repeatedly fails to comply. But Trump also went so far as to clarify that he is “not angry” with Netanyahu and that he believes the agreement will hold assuming there will be Israeli military action in Lebanon in the future.
Trump reveals that he told Netanyahu that “Syria will do the job”
“Two hours before we signed there was an attack in Beirut, I didn’t like it at all and I made it known clearly,” the White House tenant also commented, reiterating the warning or indication that Israel “would have been destroyed a long time ago if I hadn’t gotten involved.” However, he also left a revelation about a proposal that he would have left to Netanyahu himself, that it be the new Syrian Government that “deals with” the Hezbollah group.
“I think Syria has managed to unite that country amazingly quickly. It is very capable and has been very good to me. It has protected everything I have asked of it. It has done it, and if Israel can’t do the job without killing everyone else, it will do it. Syria will do the job,” he said, without specifying what exactly he means by “work.” It should be remembered that before leading the overthrow of the Syrian dictator Baschar Al-Assad, the current Syrian president, Ahmed Al-Charaa, was an important jihadist leader who was in charge of the Al Nusra Front, the branch of Al Qaeda in Syria and the Levant.
The US had put the price of a $30 million reward on his head, but the Trump Administration withdrew it and lifted sanctions on Syria after Al-Charaa gave in on an important issue that he had already achieved years before with Morocco and then with Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other countries in the Persian Gulf, which .
