U.S. President Donald Trump has reaffirmed his push for a contentious Gaza ownership proposal, insisting regional Arab nations would support resettling Palestinians under his strategy. Speaking to reporters, Trump emphasized his administration's vision for Gaza's future, though details remain vague. "I’ve talked to leaders—they’ll step up," he declared, without naming specific countries.
The plan, criticized by Palestinian advocates as destabilizing, has drawn mixed reactions globally. Analysts note challenges ahead: "Unilateral moves risk inflaming tensions in a region already grappling with displacement crises," said Middle East policy expert Layla Al-Mansoori. Meanwhile, Jordan and Egypt reiterated commitments to a two-state solution, distancing themselves from Trump's remarks.
Observers question the legality of transferring populations under international law. The UN has yet to comment, but leaked documents suggest concerns over humanitarian implications. For now, the proposal remains a flashpoint in U.S. foreign policy debates.
