U.S. President Donald Trump's controversial proposal to have the U.S. take ownership of the Gaza Strip after the conflict ends has triggered global condemnation and legal concerns. Trump envisions the territory as a U.S.-owned resort, prompting Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz to instruct the military to plan the evacuation of Palestinians who wish to leave for countries like Canada. Human Rights Watch and Canadian officials denounce the plan as ethnic cleansing. Meanwhile, Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly emphasizes Canada's support for a two-state solution and condemns Trump's comments as abhorrent.
U.S. President Donald Trump is doubling down on his vision of his country taking ownership of the Gaza Strip, saying it will be "turned over" to America by Israel once the region's fighting ends. Redmond Shannon looks at the growing questions surrounding Trump 's plan; how Israel i Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is calling it a "remarkable idea"; and the legal realities of this resettlement.
Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz says he has instructed Israeli’s military to draft a plan to evacuate any Palestinian “who wishes to leave” Gaza for countries such as Canada. Asked twice whether she agrees, Joly cited Canada’s long-held stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict and said “the comments were abhorrent.”She said Palestinians have a right to self-determination and argued that the best future for the Middle East is a two-state solution, with a Palestinian state living in peace alongside Israel.
