After meeting with Trump, Jordan's king says his country opposes displacing Palestinians in Gaza
President hosted Jordan바카라 게임 웹사이트s King Abdullah II at the White House on Tuesday and renewed his insistence that Gaza could somehow be emptied of all residents, and redeveloped as a tourist area.
It's a plan that would require Jordan and other Arab nations to accept more Gazans 바카라 게임 웹사이트 something Abdullah reiterated after their meeting that he opposes.
The pair met in the Oval Office with Secretary of State also on hand. The president suggested he wouldn't withhold U.S. aid to Jordan or Egypt if they don't agree to dramatically increase the number of people from they take in.
바카라 게임 웹사이트I don바카라 게임 웹사이트t have to threaten that. I do believe we바카라 게임 웹사이트re above that," Trump said. That contradicted the president's previous suggestion that holding back aid from Washington was a possibility.
Abdullah was asked repeatedly about Trump's plan to clear out Gaza and overhaul it as a resort on the Mediterranean Sea. He didn't make substantive comments on it and didn't commit to the idea that his country could accept large numbers of Gazans.
He did say, however, that Jordan would be willing 바카라 게임 웹사이트right away바카라 게임 웹사이트 to take as many as 2,000 children in Gaza who are suffering from cancer or otherwise ill.
바카라 게임 웹사이트I finally see somebody that can take us across the finish line to bring stability, peace and prosperity to all of us in the region,바카라 게임 웹사이트 the king said of Trump in his statement at the top of the meeting.
Abdullah left the White House after about two hours and headed to Capitol Hill to meet with a bipartisan group of lawmakers. He posted on X that during his meeting with Trump, 바카라 게임 웹사이트I reiterated Jordan바카라 게임 웹사이트s steadfast position against the displacement of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.바카라 게임 웹사이트
바카라 게임 웹사이트This is the unified Arab position. Rebuilding Gaza without displacing the Palestinians and addressing the dire humanitarian situation should be the priority for all,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Abdullah wrote.
That was despite Trump using his appearance with Abdullah to repeat suggestions that the U.S. could take control Gaza. Trump also said Tuesday that it wouldn't require committing American funds but that the U.S. overseeing the war-torn region would be possible, 바카라 게임 웹사이트Under the U.S. authority,바카라 게임 웹사이트 without elaborating what that actually was.
바카라 게임 웹사이트We바카라 게임 웹사이트re not going to buy anything. We바카라 게임 웹사이트re going to have it," Trump said of U.S. control in Gaza. He suggested that the redeveloped area could have new hotels, office buildings and houses, "and we바카라 게임 웹사이트ll make it exciting.바카라 게임 웹사이트
바카라 게임 웹사이트I can tell you about real estate. They바카라 게임 웹사이트re going to be in love with it,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Trump, who built a New York real estate empire that catapulted him to fame, said of Gaza's residents, while also insisting that he personally would not be involved in development.
Trump has previously suggested that Gaza바카라 게임 웹사이트s residents could be displaced temporarily or permanently, an idea that leaders around the Arab world have sharply rebuked.
Additionally, Trump renewed his suggestions that could be canceled if Hamas doesn't release all of the remaining hostages it is holding by midday on Saturday. Trump first made that suggestion on Monday, though he insisted then that the ultimate decision lies with Israel.
바카라 게임 웹사이트I don바카라 게임 웹사이트t think they바카라 게임 웹사이트re going to make the deadline, personally," Trump said Tuesday of Hamas. "They want to play tough guy. We바카라 게임 웹사이트ll see how tough they are.바카라 게임 웹사이트
The king's visit came at a perilous moment for the ongoing ceasefire in Gaza. Hamas is accusing Israel of violating the truce and says it will captured in its Oct. 7, 2023, attack.
In a statement, Hamas called Trump's Tuesday comments 바카라 게임 웹사이트racist바카라 게임 웹사이트 and 바카라 게임 웹사이트a call for ethnic cleansing.바카라 게임 웹사이트 It also accused the president of seeking to 바카라 게임 웹사이트liquidate the Palestinian cause and deny the national rights of the Palestinian people.바카라 게임 웹사이트
Trump has repeatedly proposed and turn it into 바카라 게임 웹사이트the Riviera of the Middle East,바카라 게임 웹사이트 with Palestinians in the war-torn territory pushed into neighboring nations with no right of return.
Trump's Tuesday comments contradicted his Monday suggestions that, if necessary, he would withhold U.S. funding from Jordan and Egypt 바카라 게임 웹사이트 longtime U.S. allies and among the top recipients of its foreign aid 바카라 게임 웹사이트 as a means of persuading them to accept additional Palestinians from Gaza.
Jordan is home to more than 2 million Palestinians. Jordan바카라 게임 웹사이트s foreign minister, Ayman Safadi, said last week that his country바카라 게임 웹사이트s opposition to Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트s idea about displacing Gaza's residents was 바카라 게임 웹사이트firm and unwavering.바카라 게임 웹사이트
Besides concerns about jeopardizing the long-held goals of a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, Egypt and Jordan have privately raised security concerns about welcoming large numbers of additional refugees into their countries even temporarily.
Trump announced his ideas for resettling Palestinians from Gaza and taking ownership of the territory for the U.S. during a press conference last week with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The president initially to help secure Gaza but at the same time insisted no U.S. funds would go to pay for the reconstruction of the territory, raising fundamental questions about the nature of his plan.
After Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트s initial comments, that Trump only wanted Palestinians relocated from Gaza 바카라 게임 웹사이트temporarily바카라 게임 웹사이트 and sought an 바카라 게임 웹사이트interim바카라 게임 웹사이트 period to allow for debris removal, the disposal of unexploded ordnance and reconstruction.
But asked in an interview with Fox 온라인 바카라 게임바카라 게임 웹사이트 Bret Baier that aired Monday if Palestinians in Gaza would have a right to return to the territory under his plan, he replied, 바카라 게임 웹사이트No, they wouldn바카라 게임 웹사이트t.바카라 게임 웹사이트
