Arab nations reject Trump's proposal to 'clean out Gaza'
1 February 2025 13:42 GMT
Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, the Palestinian Authority and the Arab League have rejected US President Donald Trump's proposal to forcibly transfer Palestinians from Gaza to neighbouring Egypt and Jordan.
The countries warned that the move could “threaten the region’s stability, risk expanding the conflict, and undermine prospects for peace and coexistence among its peoples.”
The statement followed a meeting in Cairo of top diplomats from Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, as well as Hussein al-Sheikh - a senior Palestinian official who serves as the main liaison with Israel - and Arab League chief Ahmed Aboul-Gheit.
