The United Arab Emirates rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to forcibly displace Palestinians in Gaza. The UAE emphasized the importance of protecting the rights of the Palestinian people, highlighting that Israel's settlement activities threaten opportunities for peace.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) announced that it rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to forcibly displace Palestinians in Gaza.
In a written statement from the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the emphasis was placed on the UAE's "historic" stance on the protection of the rights of the Palestinian people and its position on ensuring peace and stability in the region.
"WE WILL NOT ACCEPT THESE INITIATIVES"
The statement noted that any violation of the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and any attempt to displace this people is unacceptable. It was highlighted that Israel's construction and expansion activities of Jewish settlements undermine opportunities for peace, and the importance of creating a political horizon that would resolve the Israeli-Palestinian issue and lead to the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state was emphasized.
TRUMP'S GAZA PLAN
Trump stated during a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which was held at the White House, that the U.S. would take over the Gaza Strip and would be responsible for the removal of unexploded bombs and other weapons, as well as clearing the rubble from destroyed buildings.
Noting that Gaza is now a completely devastated area of massive destruction, Trump argued that it would be much better for Palestinians in Gaza to go to new settlements to be built in neighboring countries, primarily Egypt and Jordan.
Trump said, "The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job there. We will own it and will be responsible for the removal of all dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the ground, as well as clearing the rubble from destroyed buildings."
