US President Donald Trump has made it clear that he will not support the recognition of a Palestinian state, stating that such a move would be a reward for Hamas. This stance was reiterated by a White House official, who emphasized that Trump's priority is providing humanitarian aid to Gaza rather than engaging in diplomatic recognition. The comments come as Canada announced plans to recognize a Palestinian state if certain conditions are met, following similar steps by France and the United Kingdom. Trump also dismissed calls to pressure Israel for a long-term solution in Gaza, arguing that it would benefit Hamas.
