Egypt is expressing growing disappointment with the Donald Trump administration's approach to the future of the Gaza Strip. According to an Egyptian intelligence report prepared for President al-Sisi, Washington does not intend to make the reconstruction of Gaza a priority. The US is focused on the humanitarian situation and security, aiming for a sustainable security system before moving to large-scale economic projects. Cairo fears that the lack of active American pressure will lead to a prolonged pause, leaving Gaza's key problems unresolved. Egypt is interested in forming a sustainable post-war order that excludes a new round of war and mass displacement of Palestinians. Meanwhile, Hamas, according to a Saudi newspaper, signals readiness to transform into a political and social structure, but the issue of disarmament remains a key obstacle. At the same time, the US has notified Congress of its intention to allocate over $206 million to support international stabilization forces in Gaza.
