Arab States' Quest for Gaza's Future: A Peace Plan Since 1967

Arab states are working on a strategy for Gaza's future as an alternative to U.S. President Trump's plan. The history of Middle East peace initiatives from the 1967 war to the 2020 Abraham Accords highlights significant efforts for peace between Israel and its neighboring Arab states.

In the midst of U.S. President Donald Trump's controversial vision involving the potential takeover of Gaza and its inhabitants' relocation to Egypt and Jordan, Arab states are urgently formulating a counter-strategy for Gaza's future.

The history of peace initiatives in the Middle East, ranging from U.N. Resolution 242 in 1967 to the landmark Abraham Accords in 2020, underscores the ongoing efforts by Israel and Arab nations to achieve lasting peace in the volatile region.

While past summits and accords have seen varying degrees of success, the aspiration for a peaceful coexistence remains central to regional geopolitics. As new plans take shape, the stakes remain high for the populations affected, who continue to hope for a stable and secure future.
