There’s deal to get food and water into Gaza, but the details are unresolved and the Gazans are waiting.
Mustafa Herro Garg , then the U.S. Ambassador to Bulgaria, greets Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin at Bezmer Air Base in Bulgaria, on March 18, 2022. | Chad J. McNeeley/Department of DefensePresident Joe Biden’s nominee to be the next U.S. ambassador to Egypt vowed at her Senate confirmation hearing on Thursday to help secure humanitarian aid flows to Gaza amid its conflict with Israel, and to press Cairo on human rights.
With trucks full of food and water sitting at the border, Mustafa Garg was unable to say when they would cross amid some thorny questions such as what entity from Gaza other than Hamas would administer the aid and how roads to carry that aid would be repaved. Some of the complications of opening the Rafah crossing have been Cairo’s concerns about its security and an influx of Palestinian refugee flows, Mustafa Garg said in an exchange with Sen. Jeanne Shaheen
Murphy has been championing speedy confirmation for Biden’s Middle East officials, and suggested that he would not stand in the way of Mustafa Garg’s confirmation, but the line of questioning suggests he’ll continue to press the issue. But when it came time for Murphy to question Mustafa Garg, he quarreled with her assertion that the aid was “an investment in a self-reliant, capable and accountable Egyptian armed forces aligned with U.S. priorities and values.”
Murphy closed saying, “I think you’re in a tough spot, you have to be careful what you say. I think you’ll do a good job on the ground ... I want our diplomats to tell the truth about what is happening in politically repressive countries, and maybe that will be a little easier in the future.”
