Secretary Blinken shared a plan to help Gaza after the long conflict. It suggests using international security forces and having the United Nations take a temporary lead to bring calm to the area. This was discussed in Washington D.C. as ceasefire talks were getting close in Qatar.
The plan needs Israel to agree to a path that could lead to a Palestinian state. Blinken knows that Israel’s government, especially Prime Minister Netanyahu’s group might not like this idea because they’ve been focused on military actions. So the plan basically says that making Gaza stable is connected to a bigger solution between Israel and Palestine.
This plan comes as Blinken is about to leave his job. It shows a possible future for Gaza with other countries helping out and a chance for Palestine to become its own state. But it also recognizes that the situation is complicated and that Israel’s government may not agree with it since they want to keep going with their military operations.
