Trump says “no soldier of us would be necessary” in his Gaza proposal


Washington:

President Donald Trump said Thursday that “no soldier in the United States would be necessary” in his Gaza proposal, a few days after announced that the United States could “take over” and “own” the Gaza Strip .

“No soldier in the United States would be necessary! Stability for the region would reign !!!” He said in a post early in the morning on his social platform Truth.

Earlier this week, Donald Trump announced while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited that “the United States will take control of the Gaza Strip”.

“We will also do a job with this. We have it,” he told audible dressings at the press conference, offering few details about how the United States could withdraw more than two million Palestinians or control the territory struck by the war.

His administration seemed to go back to this proposal on Wednesday after having faced a wave of criticism from the Palestinians, Arab governments and world leaders.

Trump’s secretary of state, Marco Rubio said that the idea “was not supposed to be hostile”, while the White House said there was no commitment to send American troops.

In his article on Thursday morning, Donald Trump said that “the Gaza Strip would be handed over to the United States by Israel at the end of the fighting”.

He added that the Palestinians “would have already been resettled in much safer and more beautiful communities, with new and modern houses, in the region”.
