US 大統領 Donald Trump's 削減(する) of more than $200 million in 援助(する) for Gaza and the West Bank is the 最新の in a 一連の steps Palestinian leaders say 目的(とする)s to "(負債など)支払う" their 原因(となる).

The move follows Trump's 承認 in December of the 論争d city of Jerusalem as イスラエル's 資本/首都 同様に as his 氷点の of $300 million in 年次の 基金ing for the 国際連合 機関 for Palestinian 難民s (UNRWA).

Washington's new 政策 on Jerusalem overturned 10年間s of precedent and 誘発するd the Palestinian leadership to break off relations with the White House.

The US 大統領,/社長 答える/応じるd by 脅すing to 保留する 援助(する) until they returned to the 交渉するing (米)棚上げする/(英)提議する, and Friday's 告示 of the 削減(する) appeared to be in line with his 姿勢.

For many Israelis, the changes made by Washington are long 延滞の and bring years of failed peace 成果/努力s closer in line with reality.

But Palestinian leaders argue the White House is playing into the 手渡すs of Israeli 政治家,政治屋s.

Speaking in June, when the US 援助(する) was 単に fr ozen instead of 削減(する), longtime Palestinian 長,指導者 交渉者 Saeb Erekat spoke of the need to "敗北・負かす the American-Israeli 計画/陰謀 to (負債など)支払う the Palestinian 原因(となる)".

He and other Palestinian leaders 反応するd furiously to Friday's 告示, with one calling it "cheap ゆすり,恐喝" to coerce them into 受託するing 条件 of the peace 計画(する) that the White House has 約束d to 明かす.

"America is now 株ing in the dreams and the 政策s of イスラエル's 右翼 政府," said Palestinian political 分析家 Jihad Harb.

But for Kobi Michael, 以前は in 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金 of Palestinian 問題/発行するs at イスラエル's 戦略の 事件/事情/状勢s 省, Trump's approach serves as a necessary rude awakening for the Palestinian leadership.

He 特記する/引用するd Palestinians' 拒絶 to 受託する Jerusalem as イスラエル's 資本/首都, coupled with the UN's method of 分類するing Palestinian 難民s, as "特徴 which are much more than absurd in the 注目する,もくろむs of the 大多数 of the Israelis".

The 援助(する) 削減(する) 追加するs to the 財政上の woes of the Palestinian 当局, whose $5 billion 予算 for this year incl udes a $1.2 billion 赤字. Foreign 援助(する) was put at $775 million.

人道的な 条件s in the Israeli-封鎖d Gaza (土地などの)細長い一片, which is run by Islamist movement Hamas, are also 不正に 悪化するing.

Just last month, the World Bank 発表するd it was 増加するing its 年次の 配分 to the Palestinians to $90 million from $55 million "in 返答 to an ますます difficult 状況/情勢".

The US 基金ing that was 削減(する) was for 人道的な programmes, 組織/基盤/下部構造 and 予算 support in the 占領するd West Bank.

It also 含むd 援助 for 人道的な programmes, such as health care, in the Gaza (土地などの)細長い一片.

The White House has 持続するd some $61 million in 援助 this year for the Palestinian 安全 軍隊s, which 調整する with their Israeli 相当するものs.

- Capping 難民s? -

The Trump 行政 is taking on 核心 questions of the Israeli-Palestinian 衝突, with Jerusalem's status 存在 the most 議論の的になる of them all.

The Palestinians see east Jerusalem as the 資本/首都 of their 未来 明言する/公表する and almost the entire international community takes the position that the 問題/発行する must be 交渉するd between the two 味方するs.

After the 劇の 削減 in 基金ing, 難民s' 権利s are now 報道によれば in Washington's crosshairs.

Some 750,000 Palestinians fled or were expelled during the 1948 war surrounding イスラエル's 創造.

Palestinians and 権利s groups say the 機関 供給するs 決定的な 援助 -- 含むing schooling for hundreds of thousands of students -- that さもなければ may not be 利用できる.

But イスラエル argues UNRWA's means of 操作/手術 perpetuates the 難民 problem.

It also 主張するs on the Palestinian leadership giving up its 需要・要求する that 難民s be 認めるd the 権利 to return to their former lands now inside イスラエル.
