Jan 15 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he is backing “a newly appointed Palestinian Technocratic Government” in Gaza.

“As Chairman of the Board of Peace, I am backing a newly appointed Palestinian Technocratic Government, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, supported by the Board’s High Representative, to govern Gaza during its transition,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social. “These Palestinian leaders are unwaveringly committed to a PEACEFUL future!”
