President Donald Trump said Sunday that the Israeli government will soon have to “make a decision” on the next steps in Gaza following a U.S. exit from cease-fire talks.

“I know what I’d do, but I don’t think it’s appropriate that I say. But Israel is going to have to make a decision. It’s a mess. That whole place is a mess,” Trump told reporters during a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at his golf course in Scotland.
