“It will be our responsibility to dismantle all unleashed bombs, level the land, get rid of destroyed buildings and pave the area to boost economic development that generates an unlimited amount of jobs and homes,” he said.

Trump, who made his fortune with real estate businesses worldwide, did not rule out playing US troops to support Gaza’s reconstruction and assured that the US will do “whatever necessary” to complete that project.

“With regard to Gaza, we will do whatever it is necessary. If necessary, we will do it. We will take care of that part and develop it,” he said.

This is the first time that Trump, who campaigned with the promise of taking out the US of the wars in the Middle East, speaks of a long -term direct implication in Gaza and also the first time he suggests that the Palestinians must be permanently resettle in other countries.

Specifically, at the press conference, a journalist asked him what that American occupation would consist of and if it would be prolonged, to which Trump responded affirmatively and said he contemplates a “long -term property position” on the Gaza Strip.

He also said that he has already talked about this idea with other parts, although he did not specify which, and said that “they love the idea that the United States possesses that part of the earth.”

The Palestinians claim the Gaza Strip as part of a future state together with the East Bank and Jerusalem, so the displacement of the two million people living in the enclave and its real estate development by the US would end Palestinian state concept as has been conceived so far.

Asked about it, Trump avoided expressing support for the “solution of two states”, which has been for decades the traditional US policy about the conflict, and reiterated his idea that Gazaties are resettled in other countries.

Since his return to power on January 20, Trump has reiterated this proposal several times and insisted that Jordan and Egypt should accept more Palestinian refugees from Gaza, an idea rejected by those two countries, as well as by the United Arab Emirates , Catar, Saudi Arabia, the Palestinian authority and the Arab League.

For the first time, in statements to the press at the beginning of his meeting with Netanyahu in the oval office, Trump suggested that this resettlement should be “permanent” and tried to frame him as a humanitarian measure, stating that it was impossible to believe that someone would want to remain in A territory devastated by the war, which he described as “demolition zone.”

“For decades, everything has been death in Gaza. This has been happening for years. Everything is death. If we could get a pretty area to reassure those people, permanently, with beautiful houses where they can be happy, without shooting them, without that kill them, without stabbing them as it happens now in Gaza, “Trump said.

While the US president made these comments, both in the oval office and later at the press conference, Netanyahu looked at him smiling.

“His willingness to think outside the parameters established with fresh ideas will help us achieve all these objectives,” the Israeli prime minister praised, who has been the first foreign leader invited by Trump to the White House From his return to power.

During the meeting, in addition to the future of Gaza, both leaders talked about the fragile high fire with Hamas, the normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia and the growing tension with Iran.

The visit was an international support for Netanyahu, who first left Israel since the International Criminal Court In November, an arrest warrant against him issued, a decision that Washington has vigorously condemned and whose jurisdiction does not recognize.

Netanyahu took Trump not only comments that satisfy Israeli ultra -right, but also concrete actions in support of Israel.
