By telephone, Trump celebrated the achievement with relatives of kidnapped hostages, hearing from them praise for his work in bringing them back, never spoken to Benjamin Netanyahu. He achieved the feat of pushing the plan designed by the US down the throat of the Israeli Prime Minister, even forcing him to apologize to the Emir of Qatar for the attack carried out in Doha last month.

Qatar is a strategic ally of his government in the region, and Netanyahu has started to position himself as an obstacle. Under pressure, the prime minister had no other alternative after realizing that holding on to the American president would still be his best option. The Israeli cabinet meets this afternoon to approve the first phase of the agreement. Beforehand, he will face resistance from far-right ministers, who threaten to leave the government. The first phase of Trump’s plan includes the return of all hostages in exchange for the release of the Palestinians and a pullback of Israeli troops. In essence, it is no different from other ceasefire agreements over the past two years, which have proven ineffective. For the American president, however, it is quite representative, as he managed to put his personal stamp on it. And, symbolically, it was hurriedly released the day before the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize, for which, although with remote chances, it was nominated by Netanyahu himself.
