Congresswomen condemns Trump’s Middle East approach says Biden must reverse all of it

 Most of the diplomats and experts will applaud the current United States President Donald Trump in his development strategies and relationship building process with the Middle East but congresswomen IIhan Omar thinks otherwise. Though might have received a lot of backlash in his term as a president, this is not an area where people targeted him.

Omar believes that the deals and agreements that the Trump administration did in the Middle East is not actually under peace deal but is straightaway human rights violation. "[Trump] recently inked so-called 'peace deals' between the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel," Omar tweeted.

She further tweeted, "The only problem? They weren’t peace deals. They’re arms sales to human rights abusers, designed to empower the Gulf States and increase the risk of war with Iran."

She made a huge accusation on the current US government and the motives of the other Middle Eastern countries that were involved. The historic deal between the United Arab Emirates and Israel had included a lot of clauses among which was stopping Israel’s annexation plans in the West bank. The deal has now reportedly been even accepted by the Palestine Authority. Omar raising such questions has left people confused.

In one of her interviews she called the political system in Bahrain ‘brutal dictatorship. “Nearly every action taken under President Trump has made armed conflict more instead of less likely," she wrote.

She targeted Trump for imposing sanctions after sanctioning Iran especially known that the Iranian people are being left off with little to no medical help. He denied them essential medical supplies and worsened the already authorial regime in the gulf country.

On the other hand, the secretary of the state Mike Pompeo has praised all these steps and said that it was in fact the administration of Barack Obama which was wrong in destabilizing the impact of withdrawing from the Iran deal.

Omar further pointed at the opportunity that the president-elect Biden will have to reverse all that Trump has done in the region. Instead of siding with one dictator, we can keep ourselves at equal distance, said the congresswomen.

Contrary to what Omar claimed, Trump had received a nomination for the Nobel peace prize from diplomats who felt that he had done a remarkable job in opening up dialogue between the UAE and Israel.
