President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he doubled the US’s plans to redevelop Gaza, and viewed the war-torn enclave as a “big real estate site.”
“I think it’s a big mistake to allow Palestinians, or people living in Gaza, to return at yet another time. I don’t want Hamas to come back. And consider it a big real estate site. Please, and the US is about to own it, and we slowly – very slowly, we are not in a hurry – develop it. Trump traveled to the Super Bowl in New Orleans Sometimes he was on Air Force 1 and told reporters.
The former real estate massive Trump described Gaza as “demolition site,” “level out,” and “fixed.”
He once again suggested that other Middle Eastern countries accommodate Palestinians who had been refuged in “beautiful places.”
Trump raised the proposal at a joint press conference on Tuesday with Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu. “The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we will use it to work,” Trump said. He later described his vision for the region as the new “Riviera.”
Netanyahu has since described Trump’s plan as a “revolutionary and creative vision.”
Netanyahu attended the Cabinet meeting on Sunday after returning from the US and said his visit and discussion with the US president would “carry with them extraordinary achievements that will ensure security for Israeli generation.” Ta.
Netanyahu told the cabinet on Sunday that Trump presented a “different vision of “day”” in Gaza.

“President Trump had a completely different vision, much better for Israel. An innovative and creative vision – and we’re debating it. He’s very much in the way of implementing it. We are determined to do so. This also opens up many possibilities for us.”
Hamas officials have denounced Trump’s latest remarks and issued a statement that Palestinians would thwart all plans to replace them, Reuters reported.
According to the United Nations, Israeli war with Hamas has driven out 90% of Gaza’s inhabitants, many of which have been forced to move repeatedly.
Local leaders rejected Trump’s plan. This violates decades of US foreign policy. His proposal is expected to become an important topic of discussion when the president hosts King Jordan at the White House this week.
But Trump’s national security adviser Mike Waltz suggested on Sunday that Trump is offering the first salvo to bring other players in the area to the table to find a solution. I did.
“If you don’t like his plans, come to the table with the plans,” Waltz appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and the White House received “all kinds of outreach” since Trump’s comments earlier this week. He added that he is. .
