Jordan and Egypt reject Palestinians displacement and Trump’s plan

King Abdullah of Jordan has rejected Donald Trump’s plan to resettle Palestinians in the kingdom as part of a plan to ‘take over Gaza’ and begin a massive redevelopment of the enclave. This statement was made by the Jordanian king following a meeting with Trump at the White House on Tuesday. Human rights groups argue that such forced displacement from Gaza would amount to ethnic cleansing. To discuss the challenges ahead for Jordan and Egypt, we are joined by the Senior Middle East Research Fellow at Chatham House.
