US Secretary of State: Gaza relocation plan is generous

Yesterday evening (Wednesday), the US Secretary of State defended the president's plan to transfer Gaza residents to other countries, calling it a "generous and irreplaceable" measure.

 

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday evening supported President Donald Trump's plan to relocate Gaza residents to other countries.

 

Rubio, speaking at a news conference in Guatemala, claimed: "What Trump has proposed is America's willingness to accept responsibility for rebuilding Gaza. The people of Gaza need to live somewhere while they rebuild."

 

ABC News quoted him as saying: "Trump's proposal is to take action, remove the rubble and clear the Gaza Strip of all destruction."

 

Claiming that Trump's plan is generous and unique, the US Secretary of State added: "This proposal should be considered and was not intended as a hostile act."
