Trump Again Suggests U.S. Takes Over Gaza, Turn It Into a 'Freedom Zone'

  • At a Thursday meeting with Qatari officials in Doha, President Donald Trump proposed that the US assume control of Gaza and transform it into a freedom zone.
  • Trump's suggestion builds on earlier statements amid ongoing violence and stalled negotiations, with Qatar and Egypt mediating the Gaza ceasefire.
  • He emphasized Gaza's devastation, stating there is "practically no building standing" and insisted Hamas must be addressed for stability.
  • Trump expressed that if needed, he would support the United States assuming control of the area to transform it into a zone of freedom, focusing on economic growth and job creation.
  • This proposal aligns with Israeli goals but faces regional rejection, and the United States has not clarified the legal means to relocate 1.8 million Palestinians.
