US Elections and Trump's Victory Impact on Palestinians
06-11-2024 02:35 PM
Ammon News - US President Donald Trump declared himself the winner of the 2024 presidential election, prompting important discussions about upcoming policies and how they will influence global matters, such as the Palestinian conflict.
The Rasd Center for Political and Strategic Studies in London released a report on the topic, stating that US elections attract global interest because of the impact of Washington's policies on the international stage. With Trump's win, there is a growing mix of fears and hopes about the political decisions he will make in his upcoming term.
The paper details Trump's strong opposition to the resistance groups, labeling them as "armed militias", leading him to discuss Yahya Sinwar's death as a significant move towards regional stability. Trump made this announcement in a dramatic and exaggerated way, showing his possible future plans.
The paper suggests that US election history reveals that US policy can be unpredictable, even post-election. Analysts argue that Trump's ongoing stay in the White House brings up worries about the consistency of the strategies he implemented in his initial term as president. A major cause of instability is the unknown nature of future policies, as it is difficult to accurately forecast the course of action Trump will take during his second term.
Triumph of Trump
The article goes on to talk about Trump's win as US president, highlighting how his actions during his first term harmed Palestinians, including relocating the US embassy to Jerusalem, declaring it as Israel's capital, and cutting US aid to UNRWA. These measures helped to bolster the Palestinian Authority's isolation and diminish its political demands.
Concerns arise over Trump's declared win in the elections, as there is a possibility of further implementation or expansion of his policies, which could involve stricter actions like decreasing international aid for Palestinians or endorsing more settlement projects. This entails Palestinians encountering a fresh reality that adds further complexity to the political, economic, and humanitarian circumstances.
The Uncertain Future and the Dangers of Forecasting
The paper's conclusion is that the US elections present dangers due to the uncertainty in forecasting future policies. With Trump winning another term, it becomes challenging to predict future outcomes given his history of unpredictable and radical choices. The key question that still needs to be answered is: What impact will his new term as president have on foreign policies towards the Middle East, and what will happen to the political solutions sought by international actors? The article ends by stating that Trump's win and declaration of another term in the White House present significant political obstacles for the area. The situation in Palestine might become more complicated due to the anticipated policies of the Trump administration, which are likely to continue handling the Palestinian matter in a similar manner without significant alterations. Given the current political situation, Palestinians and international parties are eagerly awaiting the future with a mix of hope and fear, unsure of what is to come.
