Trump and Biden fight over who was behind the Gaza deal

According to Isna, Donald Trump repeated the claim that if he had not won the presidential election, the prisoner exchange and cease-fire deal in Gaza would not have been possible, and said: It is better to do this before taking the oath.

“I’m not looking for credit,” Trump said on the Dan Bongino show. I want to get them out of Gaza. They seem to have lived in hell. We have to get those people out. It will be great when we do.

Trump called Joe Biden “rude,” and President Joe Biden responded, “Is this a joke?” »

“It was rude of Biden to do nothing,” Trump said.

The US president-elect insisted that the release of the prisoners was impossible for a long time before he intervened and quickly changed the course of the negotiations, accusing Biden of “doing nothing”.

On Wednesday, Donald Trump mentioned his role in reaching a cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

Biden also said that the road to a ceasefire agreement in Gaza was “not easy”.

He noted that his government pressured Hamas to reach an agreement.

In what appears to be a downplaying of Trump’s role in completing the Gaza deal, Biden said: “Eight months ago, I presented the components of the agreement that the countries of the world supported for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.”

In a report, analysts considered the cease-fire agreement in Gaza a bittersweet victory for Biden in the days before the end of his presidential term and the inauguration of his political rival Trump, who quickly took credit for this achievement.

Mohammad bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, announced on Wednesday from Doha that a ceasefire agreement has been officially reached in the Gaza Strip between Israel and Hamas.
