President Trump said he had spoken to Jordan’s leader and planned to call Egypt’s on Sunday. Most of Gaza’s two million residents have been displaced in 15 months of fighting.

I’d like Egypt to take people,” Trump said. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing and say, ‘You know, it’s over.’” View on euronews

US President Donald Trump on Saturday floated the idea that Jordan and Egypt should take more Palestinians from Gaza, where Israel's military actions have killed tens of thousands and created a dire humanitarian situation.

President Trump said he had spoken to Jordan’s leader and planned to call Egypt’s. Mr. Trump’s suggestion echoes proposals from far-right Israelis. A Hamas official rejected the idea.

President-elect Donald Trump proposed a controversial plan aboard Air Force One: to relocate Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan, suggesting it could bring stability to the region.

You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing and say, ‘You know, it’s over,’” he says

US President Donald Trump’s suggestion that Egypt and Jordan take in Palestinians from the Gaza Strip has been firmly rejected by leaders of both countries. The proposal was also strongly denounced by both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.

President Trump said he would like to see other nations, like Jordan and Egypt, take in Palestinian refugees to “clean out” the area.

President Trump has urged Jordan and Egypt to accept more Palestinian refugees as Gaza suffers from the continued Israel-Hamas conflict. He spoke with Jordan's King Abdullah II and plans discussions with Egypt's President el-Sisi.
