BREAKING| Qatar Withdraws as Gaza Ceasefire Mediator; Trump and U.S Pressure Lead to Dramatic Break?

In a dramatic shift, Qatar has pulled out as a key mediator in the Gaza ceasefire talks, citing Hamas's refusal to negotiate in good faith. This decision comes after intense pressure from the U.S. and Trump’s administration, which had made it clear that Hamas’s continued presence in Doha was no longer acceptable. Qatar informed both Israel and Hamas that it could no longer facilitate negotiations under these conditions. The move marks a significant turning point in Middle Eastern diplomacy, as Qatar, once a key mediator, distances itself from Hamas while signaling its readiness to re-engage only if both sides show a sincere willingness to negotiate. The pressure from the U.S. on Qatar to close Hamas’s office in Doha underscores the shifting dynamics of the region's diplomatic landscape. #QatarWithdraws #GazaCeasefire #HamasDiplomacy #USPressure #TrumpPolicy #MiddleEastCrisis #QatarHamasBreak #IsraelHamasTalks #DiplomaticShift #GazaConflict #USForeignPolicy #QatarMediation #MiddleEastPeace #HamasTalks #CeasefireFailure ~PR.152~HT.95~ED.103~
