Jordan’s king cautiously supports Trump plan to end Gaza war

Jordan’s King Abdullah II expressed cautious optimism about a proposal by Donald Trump to end the Gaza war, saying many elements “align with what has been agreed upon.”

Abdullah did not provide details of the plan, reported by Jordan’s state news agency.

On Tuesday, Trump outlined a 21-point proposal to Arab and Muslim leaders aimed at excluding Hamas from any future role in Gaza. The plan reportedly includes a US guarantee that Israel will not annex the occupied West Bank and envisages military contributions from Arab and Muslim states to enforce security.

Trump is scheduled to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday.
