Congress Criticizes Modi's Praise for Netanyahu Amid West Asia Peace Deal

Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised a peace agreement for West Asia while Congress criticized him for not addressing the future of an independent Palestinian state and endorsing Benjamin Netanyahu.

The peace agreement welcomed by Narendra Modi includes a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of hostages, marking a significant step in the Trump peace plan.
Congress party leaders expressed discontent with Modi's support for Benjamin Netanyahu, highlighting a lack of commentary on the aspirations for an independent Palestinian state.
The agreement is part of the broader context of ongoing tensions involving Hamas in the Gaza Strip and aims to stabilize the region amidst ongoing conflict.

Why It Matters

This event underscores the complex dynamics of international diplomacy in West Asia, reflecting the challenges of balancing support for Israel with the need for Palestinian recognition, which is crucial for long-term peace efforts.
