President Trump will meet with Jordan's King Abdullah II, aiming to persuade him to accept refugees from Gaza amidst ongoing ceasefire tensions. Trump has suggested bold changes for Gaza, planning U.S. control to transform it into a luxurious haven, while pushing refugees to neighboring countries without allowing them to return. Jordan, hosting over 2 million Palestinians, firmly opposes this plan, citing security concerns and the risks to the long-standing two-state solution. Meanwhile, Trump's willingness to reconsider aid to Jordan and Egypt underscores the high stakes of this discussion.
Trump has proposed the U.S. take control of Gaza and turn it into "the Riviera of the Middle East," with Palestinians in the war-torn territory pushed into neighboring nations with no right of return.
When asked how he'd persuade Abdullah to take in Palestinians, Trump told reporters, "I do think he'll take, and I think other countries will take also. They have good hearts."
