Inside Trump's Bold Strategy: A Gaza Without Palestinians
From "America First" to "Take Gaza": Trump shocks global media with an unprecedented plan to relocate two million Palestinians and install U.S. control over the strip.

International media outlets have responded with widespread criticism to President Donald Trump's recent proposal regarding Gaza, where he suggested relocating Gaza's Palestinian population and implementing U.S. control over the region.
The New York Times led with the headline "Trump Declares US Should Take Control of Gaza," highlighting his statement that "all 2 million Palestinians need to go somewhere else." The proposal marks a significant departure from traditional U.S. policy positions regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The Wall Street Journal noted the apparent contradiction with Trump's previous foreign policy stance, running the headline "Trump Worked to End Foreign Entanglements. Now He Wants to Own Gaza." This references Trump's historical reluctance to engage in foreign interventions during his presidency.

French reaction was particularly swift, with BFMTV reporting that "France Opposes Forced Population Transfer." The French government explicitly rejected the concept of forcibly relocating Gaza's population.


Le Monde, France's leading newspaper, took a stronger editorial position, characterizing the proposal as "a project of ethnic cleansing" in an opinion piece. Meanwhile, Russia's RT framed the plan succinctly with the headline "Trump's Plan for Palestine: No Palestinians."

The Associated Press focused on the military implications of the proposal, particularly examining the logistics of potential U.S. control over the Gaza Strip.
This proposal represents a significant shift in discussion about Gaza's future, generating substantial debate among international observers and policymakers. The global media response highlights the controversial nature of suggesting population transfers as a solution to the ongoing conflict.
