dc.description.abstractThis study aims at exploring Trump’s foreign policy towards Israel and the Palestinian question. It is obvious that the United States has played very significant roles in trying to secure peace between Israel and Palestine. However, Trump’s government has recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and provided more financial support to Israel as part of its foreign policy. Additionally, Trump has cut down bilateral aid to Palestine. This change of position of the Trump government makes it difficult to understand if that advance the cause of peace in the region, hence, the decision to undertake this study. The main objective of the study is to explore the political and economic implications of Trump’s foreign policy for Israel and Palestine. The study employed qualitative research method. Data was obtained through semi-structured interviews with purposively selected officials from the US, Israeli and Palestinian embassies in Ghana. The study found out that President Trump’s foreign policy has economic and political implications for the conflict between Israel and Palestine. It also found out that Trump’s foreign policy was biased against the Palestinians and poses a threat to the peace process in the region. The study concludes that the UN must be dynamic in its quest to achieve peace in the region. While the United States is encouraged to remain a neutral arbiter in the peace process, participation must be adequately broadened to complement her efforts. The study also recommends that Fattah and Hamas must unite in achieving a solution to the Palestinian questionen_US
