Trump’s Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plan Sparks Massive Arab Summit; Egypt, Gulf Nations To Counter Gaza's Plan

Trump’s Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plan has sparked massive outrage in the Muslim World. U.S. President Donald Trump’s controversial plan to turn Gaza into a Middle Eastern ‘Riviera’ has triggered a major Arab summit in Saudi Arabia. Leaders from Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, and other Gulf nations are gathering to discuss a unified response to the proposal, which involves expelling Gaza’s Palestinian population. While Cairo has proposed an alternative reconstruction plan, divisions remain over who should govern Gaza post-war. As regional tensions escalate, the summit is expected to shape the future of Gaza and broader Middle East geopolitics. #TrumpGazaPlan #GazaRiviera #TrumpMiddleEast #GazaCleanOut #TrumpGazaPolicy #ArabSummit #PalestinianCrisis #MiddleEastConflict #GazaCrisis #TrumpIsrael #HamasConflict #GazaWar #TrumpForeignPolicy #IsraelHamasWar #Geopolitics ~HT.318~ED.346~PR.152~GR.124~

Trump Insists On Gaza Takeover, Says "Nothing To Buy, Will Take It" Amid Global Backlash | Details

President Donald Trump has doubled down on his plan to "own" Gaza, proposing to displace 2.2 million Palestinians and place Gaza under U.S. authority. While Trump insists the region can be redeveloped and will benefit the Middle East, Jordan's King Abdullah II has pushed back, citing the unified Arab stance against Palestinian displacement. Meanwhile, Egypt is working on a plan to address Gaza's reconstruction while ensuring Palestinians remain. Trump also faces growing resistance as tensions over Gaza’s future escalate. #Trump #Gaza #Palestinians #MiddleEast #USPolitics #KingAbdullahII #GazaTakeover #USAuthority #PalestinianDisplacement #GazaPlan #TrumpPlan #PalestinianCause #Jordan #Egypt #Reconstruction #MiddleEastPeace #USForeignPolicy #PalestinianRights #GazaCrisis #TrumpProposal #ArabPosition #Peripheral
