Qatari Influence on Trump's Gaza Ceasefire Push
President Donald Trump's sudden interest in a Gaza ceasefire has raised questions about his motivations.
Trump's stance on Gaza shifted after Israel's attack on Qatar, a close ally with significant business ties to the Trump family.
Trump used the word "Palestinian" as a slur to insult then-President Joe Biden on the debate stage.
Initially, Trump showed little concern for Palestinian suffering during Israel's war on Gaza.
- Trump's family and friends have key business deals in Qatar.
- The US also has significant ties to the Gulf state ally.
Trump's push for a ceasefire may have been driven by his relationship with Qatar, rather than a desire for peace.
Author's summary: Trump's Gaza ceasefire push may be linked to Qatari business ties.
