Mohammed bin Salman wants an alternative to Trump's Gaza plan but one that most benefits Saudi Arabia | Madawi al-Rasheed
Briefly

Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is spearheading negotiations in Riyadh today with regional leaders to readdress the situation in Gaza. They condemn Donald Trump’s proposal for a US takeover of Gaza and aim to propose an alternative plan centered around establishing a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. This summit seeks to secure reconstruction funding while maintaining Palestinian presence. However, Mohammed faces obstacles, particularly from Israel, as he pursues normalization of relations with the country despite his strong opposition to Hamas.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman insists on no normalization with Israel unless a Palestinian state is established, including East Jerusalem as its capital, prioritizing Palestinian rights.
The summit will focus not only on the reconstruction of Gaza but also on finding an alternative power to replace Hamas, with Crown Prince Mohammed firmly against it.
