"Using slides showing images of gleaming skyscrapers and apartments, Jared Kushner presented a Trump-backed "master plan" for the rebuilding of Gaza. Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law, said during Thursday's presentation at the World Economic Forum in Davos that postwar Gaza would become "a place that the people can thrive, have great employment." "In the Middle East they build cities like this, you know for 2 or 3 million people, they build this in three years,""
"And so, stuff like this is very doable if we make it happen," he said, speaking immediately after Trump presented his ambitious "Board of Peace" designed to oversee the Gaza truce and Strip's reconstruction. Kushner spoke of needing investments of at least $25 billion (21.3 billion) to rebuild Gaza's shattered infrastructure and public services. "It could be a hope. It could be a destination," he said."
Jared Kushner presented a Trump-backed master plan at the World Economic Forum in Davos using images of gleaming skyscrapers and apartments to illustrate postwar rebuilding. The proposal promises that postwar Gaza could become a place where people can thrive and obtain employment, claiming that Middle East cities for two to three million people can be built in about three years. The plan foresees four phases covering Rafah, Khan Younis, Center Camps and Gaza City and calls for at least $25 billion to rebuild shattered infrastructure and public services. These proposals stand in stark contrast with widespread destruction, large-scale displacement and ongoing temporary shelters despite a ceasefire.
