President Donald Trump offered a vision for a “long-term ownership position” and redevelopment of Gaza, a remarkable assertion from a sitting US president amid a centuries-long conflict — particularly one who rose to political power in the US through his criticism of America’s longest wars in the Middle East, SİA reports citing CNN.
“I do see a long-term ownership position, and I see it bringing great stability to that part of the Middle East, and maybe the entire Middle East,” Trump told reporters in the East Room.
He continued, “This was not a decision made lightly. Everybody I’ve spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land, developing and creating thousands of jobs with something that will be magnificent.”
The president also said Tuesday that the US “will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too.”
“We’ll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site,” he said. “Level the site, and get rid of the destroyed buildings, level it out, create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area, do a real job, do something different.”
