Einige europäische Staaten überdenken ihre Präsenz auf dem von den USA unterstützten Gaza-Stützpunkt, sagen Diplomaten

SS: Several unnamed European countries are quietly rethinking (or already dialing back) their participation in the US-led Civil-Military Coordination Centre (CMCC) in southern Israel—established in October 2025 under Trump’s Gaza ceasefire plan—after diplomats described it as „directionless“ and a „disaster“ with zero meaningful increase in humanitarian aid flows to Gaza, no political breakthroughs, and Israel retaining tight control over dual-use items and policy. Some officials haven’t returned post-holidays, raising the prospect of outright withdrawal despite the centre’s role in monitoring the fragile truce, drafting post-war „white papers,“ and shaping reconstruction/governance ideas amid Phase Two’s recent launch (Palestinian technocrat committee, „Board of Peace“).

With no Palestinian representation at the CMCC, stalled aid (contradicting White House claims), partial Israeli withdrawals leaving 53% of Gaza under IDF control, and broader ally unease over Trump’s unorthodox foreign policy playbook, does this European foot-dragging signal growing disillusionment with being sidelined in a US-centric process that risks entrenching Israeli dominance over Gaza’s future, or simply pragmatic retreat from a stalled mission lacking real leverage in a multipolar Middle East where Trump’s deals prioritize optics over implementation?
