Donald Trump has reignited debate with his suggestion that the US should take control of Gaza, claiming it would be a “good thing”.
This idea, discussed during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, involves relocating Palestinians to neighboring countries, sparking concerns of ethnic cleansing.
Trump’s plan, first introduced during his initial weeks in office, has faced global condemnation and criticism from various nations and organizations.
The proposal involves clearing rubble, dismantling weaponry, and removing unexploded ordnance, with the US taking ownership of the territory.
Critics argue that Trump’s plan disregards international law, which prohibits the forced transfer of populations.
Arab League leaders have proposed a counter plan, a $53 billion initiative to create an interim committee to govern Gaza and prepare for the Palestinian Authority’s return.
The plan has received negative reception from several nations and organizations, with concerns about its implications for the Middle East region.
The Arab League’s counter proposal aims to provide a more comprehensive approach to addressing Gaza’s future, focusing on establishing a committee to govern Gaza and prepare for the Palestinian Authority’s return.
The feasibility and legality of Trump’s plan have also been questioned, with many considering it unworkable and contradictory to international law.
Trump’s proposal has raised concerns about its potential impact on regional stability, with some experts warning it could lead to social upheaval and even topple the Jordanian monarchy.
