Trump has difficulties with Putin and Netanyahu, who brake his external agenda
President Donald Trump is disappointed with his last guided telephone calls with leaders who are involved in war. In one of his last conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump said: "Very disappointed" about the escalation of the Ukraine war, despite his efforts to end the conflicts. In a conversation with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he also admitted: "It was a kind of disappointing", while the war continues in the Gaza Strip and the humanitarian crisis intensifies.
The secret Nobel Prize
The unresolved conflicts in Ukraine and in the Gaza Strip hinder Trump's chances of a Nobel Prize for Peace. His complex personal relationships with Putin and Netanyahu have turned out to be limited. Despite earlier beliefs that he can quickly solve the conflicts, Trump is increasingly frustrated because he can not manage these crises better than his predecessor Joe Biden, whom he sees as a failure in foreign policy.
Putin and Netanyahu in focus
Trump has found that Putin's approach is unpredictable. While Trump emphasizes again and again that her conversations are good, Putin, with his aggressive military actions in Ukraine, which Trump describes as "absolutely crazy", has put his patience to the test. Relationships with Netanyahu are also tense, especially in view of the air raids in Syria and Gaza, which provided excitement internationally.
unexpected health crises
The pictures of hungry children from Gaza have touched Trump so much that they moved him to demand more humanitarian aid. He spoke to Netanyahu about what the United States could do to help and found that when he returned from Scotland he found the children's emergency "terrible". "I think everyone who is not heartless can only say that it is terrible to see the children," said Trump in Scotland.
dealing with Putin
Trump's frustration about Putin has accumulated for months. He once believed that a positive relationship with Putin could turn into a peace treaty. But instead of making progress, Trump is forced to increase the pressure on Russia and set a clearer period of negotiations. Nevertheless, the challenge remains to improve relationships.
difficulties with Netanyahu
Trump's attempts to put Netanyahu under pressure to achieve a permanent ceasefire with Hamas have not yet brought the desired success. Despite his earlier support for Netanyahu and the blossom press of the media, it can be seen that personal relationships do not always have the decisive influence to cope with the complex geopolitical challenges in the region. Trump's ambassador in Israel, Mike Huckabee, recently assured that relationships between Trump and Netanyahu "are stronger than ever", but in view of the current events there is uncertainty about the future of these connections.
Trump's influence on the humanitarian crisis
In view of the continuing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Trump took a few steps to push Netanyahu to introduce humanitarian breaks. In the past few days, the Israeli military leadership of "humanitarian breaks" has reported in the most affected areas to enable UN convoy to deliver relief goods. Trump's public commitment to support people in Gaza could be significant change in his rhetoric. Nevertheless, some government members emphasize that the differences between the two leaders are exaggerated.
