On Saturday, a large group of Arab countries rejected the ideas that President Trump has floated to be transferred to Egypt and Jordan, and in a statement in a statement in a statement that such a plan is at risk of further expanding the Middle East conflict. 。
The statements signed by Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and other Arab countries did not clearly mention Trump’s comments, but plans to encourage “transfer or roots from the Palestinian land”. He warned that it threatened stability. “It impairs the possibility of peace and coexistence between people.”
Recently, Trump has many times suggested that more Gaza people should evacuate from the flying land and take them to Jordan and Egypt.
The right end of Israel is making a similar call for Palestinians to leave the territory.
“We’re probably talking about one and a half millions, so we’ll wipe out all of them,” Trump said last weekend. “I don’t know. Something must happen, but it’s literally a dismantling site.”
He told Jordan and Egypt that “it could be temporarily or long -term” to Jordan and Egypt. Mr. Trump’s comment suggested that Gaza’s population (more than 2 million people should leave.
For Palestinians, even such a suggestion of asylum evokes painful historical memories. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were kicked out to neighboring countries during the war surrounding Israel’s establishment in 1948. After they left, Israel did not allow them to return, and many are still officially regarded as refugees.
Egypt and Jordan immediately spurred Trump’s call. The two countries have a long -standing Palestinian policy with Israel and have been supported by the Palestinian state, but they are afraid that the inflow of Palestinians, which is maintained indefinitely, could cause a drastic change in the country.
The Saturday statement was a famous show of unity from the whole Arab world. The United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Palestine authorities, and the Secretary -General of the Arab Federation also signed a statement. This came after the Foreign Minister’s meeting in Cairo.
According to the statement, the government is looking forward to cooperating with the Trump administration, “to achieve fair and comprehensive peace in the Middle East in accordance with the two states.
During his former administration, Trump submitted a plan that Palestinians had much lower than the truly independent nation. It is still unknown what he is trying to move forward during his current term and his long -term vision for the west coast of Gaza and Israel.
The Trump administration seemed to be eager to be involved in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf of the Arab Emirates, after the president had almost friendly relationships with both in his first term.
However, Mr. Trump’s attitude toward Gaza could complicate their efforts.
His administration is trying to mediate a wider Middle East Peace Agreement, including normalizing the diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
However, in response to the Hamas -led attack on October 7, 2023, the war in Gaza promoted a major change in the region.
The extensive anger at the war, which killed tens of thousands of people and brought large -scale destruction and movement of the population, attracted attention on the Palestinian state.
Prince Mohamed Bin Salman, the leader of Saudi Arabia, states that his country will not establish diplomatic relations with Israel without Palestinian state.
Millions of Palestinian refugees have already lived in Camps in Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon, but others live in the United Arab Emirates. Egypt has also allowed more than 100,000 Gazan to invade the territory since the war began in October 2023.
On Friday, a small group of Egyptians demonstrated the Rapha border intersecting Gaza as part of a protest against Palestine’s movement from Gaza. Dictatorial rallys are mostly performed or sponsored by authorities.
Both Egypt and Jordan are important US partners in the Middle East, and the U.S. government usually regards its stability as a larger region. Both receive considerable US funds. Egypt is the second largest foreign assistant after Israel.
