Trump Thinks Displacing Palestinians During Gaza Rebuild Would Be 'More Majestic'
HuffPost
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt outlined the president's latest thoughts on relocating 2 million Palestinians, despite opposition from leaders of Arab nations.
President Donald Trump believes it would be “much better and more majestic” for Palestinians in Gaza to be relocated to neighboring countries, the White House said Wednesday.
To the bafflement of many observers, Trump recently proposed that the U.S. take ownership of the Gaza Strip and redevelop it into the “Riviera of the Middle East.” Israel’s bombardment has flattened much of the territory, with the U.N. estimating it could take decades and $80 billion to rebuild.
Trump’s proposal involves resettling a population of 2 million Palestinians in other Arab countries while the redevelopment program takes place.
Following a White House visit on Tuesday, King Abdullah II of Jordan said Arab nations are “unified” in their opposition to the idea.
“Rebuilding Gaza without displacing the Palestinians and addressing the dire humanitarian situation should be the priority for all,” he said in a statement.
