Why did America stop helping Palestinian refugees?


When millions of Palestinians became refugees after the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, they were then designated to look after the United Nations Relief and Work

Agency for Palestine in the Near East (UNRWA), a company called.

They currently provide health, education and other social services to support the nearly five million Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.

The United States is the main supplier of the United Nations agency for a long time. But after the Donald Trump power came to power, the situation continued to change.

In the year 2016, the United States alone provided UNRW $ 3 billion in aid. But trump administration reduced this aid by nearly thirty percent last year.

And this time the United States announced its complete closure.

It has been said from Washington that this relief organization has a serious 'deformity'. Israel has been saying the same thing for a long time. But where is this 'lump' spoken?

Why is this hostile behavior in the United States?


President Trump has recently commented in his typical manner that the United States helps so much but instead gets 'honor' or 'rewards' from the Palestinians.

At the beginning of this year, he warned that if he did not agree to settle with Israel, he would stop helping the Palestinians.

According to observers - the problem is deeper.

The United Nations agency supports the right to return to Palestinians abandoned in Israel, which Israel is always angry at.

The trump administration has now embraced that position with Israel.

At the beginning of this week, US Ambassador to the United Nations Niki Haley said that the UNRWA has always increased the number of Palestinian refugees. He openly said that this organization needs reform.

"... look at numerous refugees continuously taking help, but what is more striking is that these Palestinians are criticizing America day and night."

What does Israel say?


Israel is always cautious about the UNRWA, supporting Palestine's right to return to the emigrants left in Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly called for the reduction of donations in this organization. He also proposed that UNRWA's role is handed to the UN refugee agency UNHCR.

According to him, UNRWA is "increasing the Palestinian crisis".

What's the reaction?


Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas responded with anger over the US decision, saying it is a serious blow to the Palestinian people.

Hamas, the hardline Palestinian group, said it made the Palestinian crisis more serious.

United States Secretary of State Antonio Guterres and German Foreign Minister criticized the decision of the United States. Call on other countries to come forward to fulfill the shortfall in the relief fund of Mr. Guterres. German Foreign Minister Heiko Month said they will increase their donations.

And the United States has criticized them as an organization filled with fierce 'turmoil', UNRWA has denied it in acute language.

Agency spokesman Chris Gaines said, "We are totally rejecting the UNRWA's school, health center and urgent aid program that has been described as 'a reversal of refinement' ... our programs have proved to be one of the most successful programs for human development in the Middle East and international The community praised this organization for that.
