Jordan emphasizes it cannot take in more Palestinians while Arab nations propose a plan to rebuild Gaza without displacing its residents. This initiative comes in response to U.S. President Trump’s controversial plan to relocate Palestinians. Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi warns of potential escalations in the West Bank as tensions rise.
Arab nations are currently formulating a plan designed to rebuild Gaza while ensuring its residents remain in place, alongside guarantees for security and governance. Jordan’s foreign minister, Ayman Safadi, emphasized that Jordan cannot absorb more Palestinians into its population of which 35% are already refugees. Safadi firmly stated that both Jordan and the Palestinians do not favor relocating to Jordan.
The Arab proposal aims to address the rebuilding of Gaza without displacing its inhabitants, countering U.S. efforts that suggest resettling Palestinians in Jordan and Egypt. Amid rising tensions, especially in the West Bank, Safadi warns of potential escalations and underscores the need for long-term peace, advocating for cooperative regional security.
