Donald Trump Believes Decision by some Countries to Recognise Palestinian State Is a 'Reward to Hamas'

Trump argues Western recognition of Palestine rewards Hamas and undermines hostage release efforts amid ongoing conflict, while Israel vows West Bank settlement expansion, officials said.

  • On September 22, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump publicly opposed Western nations recognizing a Palestinian state, warning it rewards Hamas.
  • This opposition follows recognition moves by Britain, Canada, Australia, Portugal, France, and Belgium aiming to support a two-state solution despite Israeli objections.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned these recognitions as a huge reward for terrorism, vowed to expand West Bank settlements, and affirmed no Palestinian state west of the Jordan River.
  • A spokesperson for the White House conveyed that President Trump opposes recognizing a Palestinian state at this time, viewing such actions as ineffective for securing the release of 48 hostages and resolving the Gaza conflict. He considers these moves as largely symbolic, amounting to insufficient action rather than meaningful progress.
  • The event intensifies tensions amid the ongoing Gaza conflict while Western leaders argue recognition preserves prospects for peace and rejects terrorism’s future role.
