"Israel, by the standards it set for itself, has accomplished the goals it set for itself," US Secretary of State Antony Blinken told reporters during a visit to Brussels.
Blinken also said that the time has come to end the war. He further stated that the US wants a real and prolonged pause in the fighting in Gaza so that aid can reach the people who need it.
The United States has yet to offer any serious consequences to Israel for its apparent disregard for US demands to end the war and address the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
On Tuesday after the expiration of a 30-day US deadline for Israel to take steps to address the humanitarian situation in Gaza, Washington said Israel was not blocking aid to Gaza and was therefore not violating US law.
However, eight international aid groups said Israel had failed to meet US demands to improve aid access. Food security experts have said that famine is likely to be imminent in some parts of the Belt.
Biden, whose term ends in January, has strongly supported Israel since the outbreak of war on October 7, 2023.
Since then, more than 43,500 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed in Gaza, two million displaced and much of the Strip reduced to rubble.
