Policies regarding Gaza's location: U.S. government mulls over possible relocation from Gaza
The Gaza Strip, a region fraught with conflict and economic hardship, has been at the centre of a controversial plan proposed by the US government during Donald Trump's presidency. The plan, named GREAT Trust, aims to transform Gaza into a "Riviera of the Middle East" through investments in various infrastructure projects and megaprojects, such as electric vehicle factories, data centers, beach resorts, and high-rise residential buildings.
According to reports from the Washington Post, the plan involves managing Gaza under a US-administered trust for at least ten years. This could potentially lead to the resettlement of the two million Palestinian residents, either abroad or into enclosed zones within the coastal strip.
The proposed resettlement has sparked international outcry and criticism, with experts arguing that the potential expulsion of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip would violate international law. Critics claim that mass resettlements to other countries in the region would be a destabilizing factor and a security risk for the Middle East.
The plan offers financial incentives to encourage Palestinians to leave Gaza. Each willing resident is reportedly offered $5,000 (approximately €4,280) and a year's supply of food. However, doubts have been expressed about the funding and implementation of the GREAT Trust plan.
The Washington Post has also reported on a 38-page plan circulating within the US government, which details the potential resettlement options for Gaza's residents. The plan, first proposed by the US President in February 2021, includes public and private investments in megaprojects.
Critics also express concerns about the potential takeover of the Gaza Strip by the US government. The idea of placing the Gaza Strip under a US-managed trusteeship for at least ten years has been met with scepticism and opposition.
The proposed plan for Gaza has been met with controversy and debate, raising questions about the future of the region and the rights of its residents. As the details of the GREAT Trust plan continue to emerge, the international community will be watching closely to see how this controversial proposal unfolds.
