During a recent phone call, President Trump suggested to King Abdullah II of Jordan that both Jordan and Egypt should take in more Palestinians displaced by the ongoing conflict in Gaza. He described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as a "demolition site," referring to the extensive destruction and suffering faced by the local population. As Palestinian refugees begin returning home due to a fragile cease-fire, the complexities of international agreements and the policies of Egypt and Jordan regarding refugee intake remain contentious and uncertain.
You're talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing. I don't know. Something has to happen, but it's literally a demolition site right now.
Mr. Trump stated that he would also like Egypt to take in more Palestinians and that he would speak to President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on Sunday.
