“Now they will take over Gaza’s belt, and we will do a job with him too,” Trump said on Monday.
“We will own it and be responsible for dismantling all the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons in place, to level the place and get rid of the destroyed buildings, to leve it, to create economic development that will supply an unlimited number of jobs and accommodation for people of the area,” he said Trump.
“Do the right job, do something different.”
Netanyahu’s visit to the White House is coming because American, Israeli and Arab negotiators begin conversations around the second phase of the Gaza trial plan, which has shown the promise to end the devastating 15-month war.
Ever since the interruption began in January, several Israeli hostages have been released and Hamas has withdrawn political control over Gaza.
Palestinian civilians who were forced from their homes during the last year of the war also began to return.
But the question of what is happening now in Gaza, politically and logistically, is the friging.
Earlier on Tuesday, Trump said he did not think that the residents of the occupied territory, who numbered about 2.2 million before the war, should return to his homes.
“This is a very difficult situation. I don’t think people should go back to Gaza,” Trump said in the White House earlier. “They live as hell. They have no alternative.”
Trump said he was working on the belief of neighboring countries to accept hundreds of thousands of more refugees from the territory.
“The king in Jordan and the general in Egypt will open their heart and give us the kind of land we need,” Trump said on Tuesday night.
