Israeli President Isaac Herzog has called on neighboring countries to come up with a “better idea” regarding Gaza. His remarks were made during an interview following a meeting between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where they discussed the future of Gaza.
In the interview, Herzog emphasized that President Trump clarified he was not advocating for a military takeover of Gaza. He mentioned important upcoming meetings between Trump and key Arab leaders, including the King of Jordan and the President of Egypt, highlighting the significance of listening to these partners. Herzog underscored the need to build a sustainable plan for Gaza’s future, as well as for the children of both Gaza and Israel.
Herzog expressed concern about the current leadership in Gaza, referring to the prevailing forces there as “terrorists” that have caused great suffering for the people. He asserted that change is necessary to create a better future for everyone in the region. He invited neighboring countries to offer their own solutions, asking if they have any alternatives to the ideas being presented.
The emphasis on collaboration and forward-thinking plans reflects a desire for stability and peace in a region often marked by conflict. With President Trump’s leadership, Herzog sees the possibility of new ideas emerging that could lead to positive changes in Gaza and beyond.
