Donald Trump’s proposal to resettle Palestinians from Gaza—framed as a “humanitarian gesture”—faces fierce backlash for violating international law, which bans forced population transfers. Critics, including Arab nations and rights groups, condemn it as “ethnic cleansing” aimed at expelling Palestinians to expand Israeli settlements in occupied territories.
Key Arab states like Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and the Arab League rejected the plan, warning it risks Middle East stability, fuels regional conflict, and destroys Palestinian statehood prospects. Trump’s call aligns with Israel’s far-right goals to displace Palestinians, escalating tensions amid fragile ceasefire and hostage-release talks.
The Trump-Netanyahu alliance continues to reshape US-Israel policy, with Trump insisting Gaza is a “demolition site” needing US-led redevelopment. However, his Gaza takeover plan ignores Palestinian rights, drawing global condemnation and complicating Middle East peace efforts.
