Former President Donald Trump met with Jordan’s King Abdullah II at the White House on Tuesday, reaffirming his plan for the U.S. to “take” Gaza, relocate its residents to Jordan and other Arab nations, and redevelop the territory. Trump’s proposal includes potential aid cuts to Jordan if they refuse to accept Gaza’s residents, risks straining U.S. alliances in the region. Trump dismissed accusations of ethnic cleansing, saying Gazans would “live beautifully in another location.” Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Trump’s proposal a “revolutionary vision” as he threatened to resume military action against Hamas amid a fragile ceasefire.
