Jordan rejects Trump's resettlement proposal

The proposal of US President Trump to relocate people from the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan has only met with approval in Israeli ultra-rights. Jordan, Egypt and the Gaza residents granted the idea.

U.S. President Donald Trump came across a decisive rejection with his idea of ​​resetting the residents of the destroyed Gaza Strip to Jordan and Egypt. Only right-wing extremist politicians in Israel as Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich or the former Minister of Police Itamar Ben-Gvir welcomed the proposal.

Smotrich and Ben-Gvir support resettlement

Smotrich wrote in a post on the platform X, the idea of ​​helping the Palestinians “finding other places to start new, good life,” was great. He would work with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Ben-Gvir, who had resigned from the Netanyahus government because of the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, said that Trump's admission gives the Green Light to advance the “voluntary emigration”. “If the President suggests the greatest superpower himself, the Israeli government should implement it,” he said. Many Palestinians see a code for ethnic cleansing in the concept of “voluntary emigration”.

Egypt and Jordan reject proposal

Egypt and Jordan rejected Trump's proposal. Jordan's Foreign Minister Aiman ​​Al-Safadi said that his country was strictly against forced relocations of Palestinians. “Our negative attitude regarding the expulsion of Palestinians is and will not change,” emphasized Safadi. According to the UN, 2.3 million Palestinian refugees have already been registered in Jordan.

Egypt also confirmed that it was against the violation of the rights of Palestinians by displacement or promoting the relocation of Palestinians from their country. This applies to both temporary and permanent measures.

Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas warned of a possible expulsion of the residents of the coastal strip, which would represent “a blatant violation of the red lines”. “Our people will remain unshakable and not leave their homeland,” said a statement by the presidential office in Ramallah in the West Bank.

The Islamist Hamas in the Gaza Strip also rejected the plans. Trump should stop making such suggestions that contradict the rights of the Palestinian people, it said.

Trump described the area as “demolition fallen”

Trump had spoken out to clear the largely destroyed Gaza strip and to accommodate the Palestinians living there in Arab countries. He wanted people to record people and Jordan, Trump said on board the government machine “Air Force One”, according to traveling journalists. One speaks of one and a half million people, “and we simply clean the area thoroughly”.

The gaza strip is literally a demolition fall, almost everything is being torn down, and people would die there, Trump said according to the traveling journalists. So he would rather work with some Arab nations and build apartments in another place, where the Palestinians might be able to live in peace for a change. It could be temporary or long -term, he answered a corresponding journalist question.
