Trump leaning on Pakistan to contribute troops to Gaza force: Report
https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/trump-leaning-pakistan-contribute-troops-gaza-force-report(www.middleeasteye.net)The Trump administration is reportedly pressuring Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir to contribute troops to a proposed international stabilization force in Gaza. This force is a key part of a US peace plan but has struggled to gain support from Arab and Muslim states who fear being seen as collaborators with Israel. Pakistan, which has no diplomatic ties with Israel, would find it difficult to justify the move to its pro-Palestinian public, especially as the force's mandate regarding the disarmament of Hamas remains unclear. Other potential contributors like Turkey and Azerbaijan have also not committed, highlighting the challenges in assembling the force.
