White House press secretary Jen Psaki argued Tuesday that former President Donald Trump did not help bring peace to the Middle East, even as historic violence has erupted between Israel and Palestine under President Joe Biden’s administration.
“Aside from putting forward a peace proposal that was dead on arrival, we don’t think they did anything constructive really to bring an end to the long-term conflict in the Middle East,” Psaki told reporters aboard Air Force One on Tuesday during a trip to Michigan.
AD Psaki reacted to a reporter’s mention of the Trump administration’s Abraham Accords that worked to normalize relations between Arab nations and Israel.
The diplomatic efforts of the Trump administration in the region with Israel and Middle Eastern countries were widely celebrated as a success.
The violence in the region under Biden’s leadership is at the highest level since at least 2014, before Trump was president.
Last week, Trump issued a statement attributing the surge of violence in the region as a sign of Biden’s “weakness” and failure to support Israel.
“When I was in office we were known as the Peace Presidency because Israel’s adversaries knew that the United States stood strongly with Israel and there would be swift retribution if Israel was attacked,” Trump said.
But Psaki made a pointed effort to demonstrate the Biden administration is taking a much different approach on the issue.
“I would say that we are not following the same tactics of the previous administration,” she said.
The Biden administration, she said, restored foreign aid from the United States to the Palestinians that Trump cut during his presidency in 2018.
Biden also supported a “two-state solution,” Psaki said, which she argued will be the only way for a “long term” peaceful solution between Israelis and Palestinians.

we never needed fact checkers until the truth started getting out...
“Middle East Peace” in their minds means “give in to the Palestinians and their ridiculous, never-ending demands.”
History books are written by the winners.
Of course, because they won’t give 10% of the Mid East to the big guy.
The Biden administration, she said, restored foreign aid from the United States to the Palestinians that Trump cut during his presidency in 2018.
In other Words:
WE GAVE THEM THE MONEY TO BUY WEAPONS AND ROCKETS
Full of crap!
Fixed it.
The five clowns advising Biden are foolish amateurs and have no idea about foreign policy. God help the USA.
Did you see the article in Daily Mail? Ronald Reagan made the same joke Biden tried to make yesterday at the USCG graduation. Reagan even made his at the same academy, only thing is Reagan nailed it.
Polling numbers must be terrible. Time to blame someone else.
Our Donald had five or six nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize.
"Middle East Peace" means, to them, Israel and the Palestinians. Peace between them will never happen.
In the Mideast....... Biden et al are irrelevant. The actions Biden is taking are trying to play a game that is already over.
The Euros are calling softly for a cease fire
Iran is contained by the coalition of Israel and the Arabs. Palestinians are being cast aside by all in that group. Iran in the form of Hamas is being purged.
Itan retreated when it announced the Palestinians must do for themselves. Iran will thus not protect its Hammas surrogate directly.
