Donald Trump's Gaza Strip proposal

U.S. President Donald Trump, beside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, announcing his plan to take over the Gaza Strip

On 4 February 2025, U.S. president Donald Trump declared his intent for the United States to take over administrative control of the Gaza Strip. The proposal was made during a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas-led Palestinian militants. Trump expressed his vision to re-develop the territory into the "Riviera of the Middle East".[1] The plan would call for the forced displacement of approximately 2 million Palestinians to neighboring lands.[2] It would also require the removal of over 50 million tonnes of debris and unexploded ordnance.[1] When asked how the territory will be acquired, Trump claimed the U.S. will "take it".[3] The proposal has received negative reception from several nations and organizations, contrasting with strong support from Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.[4]
