During a joint press conference with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President declared that he wants the U.S. to take over the Gaza Strip and force the relocation of millions of , with wealthy neighboring countries footing the redevelopment bill.

“It should not go through a process of rebuilding and occupation by the same people that have really stood there and fought for it and lived there and died there and lived a miserable existence there,” said Trump.

His proposal is a dramatic break from decades of U.S. policy. Under his vision, the 1.8 million residents would be moved to alternative sites, while the territory itself would be cleared. Redevelopment would include demolishing structures and rebuilding them into a zone financed by affluent regional partners.

The proposal has ignited intense anger, with many critics calling it “ethnic cleansing” and a flagrant violation of international law.
