The US president suggested that Egypt and Jordan should take Palestinians from Gaza.
Foreign ministers of five Arab countries have issued a joint statement that rejects the forced displacement of the Palestinians from their land.
The statement published on Saturday presented a single position against US President Donald Trump call For Egypt and Jordan to take Palestinians from Gaza.
Foreign ministers and employees of Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, the Palestinian Power and the Arab League said the Trump proposed move would threaten the stability in the region, spread the conflict and undermine the prospects of peace.
“We confirm the rejection of (any attempt) to compromise the indistinguishable rights of the Palestinians, whether through a settlement or expulsion or application of land or through the release of land from its owners … in any form or under any circumstances,” Read the joint joint statement.
The meeting came after Trump said Last week Egypt and Jordan have to take Palestinians from Gaza, which he called a “place of demolition” after 15 months of Israeli bombing This led to the greater part of their 2.3 million homeless people.
Egypt and Jordan – key American allies in the region – have repeatedly rejected Trump's proposal to “clean” Gaza. Jordan is home to several million Palestinians, while tens of thousands live in Egypt.
On Wednesday, Egypt President Abdel Fatah El-Sisi also rejected Trump's idea and said the Egyptians would go out to express their disapproval.
“The displacement of the Palestinian people from their land is an injustice in which we cannot participate,” he added.
On Thursday, however, Trump repeated the idea, saying, “We do a lot for them and they will do so,” in the apparent reference to the abundant US help, including military assistance, Egypt and Jordan.
Analysts said Trump's proposal would be an ethnic cleansing.
Youssef Munayer, head of the Palestine/Israel Program at the Washington Arab Center, Colombia County, to say Al Jazeera earlier this week that Trump's “outrageous” statement must be convicted of violating all norms and fundamental rights.
“Trump says all sorts of things,” Munayer said, explaining that the US President's statement should be a hint of skepticism.
“Sometimes they are the things he has in mind. Sometimes they are things that he doesn't mean. Sometimes they are the things he heard in a conversation he had five minutes ago. Sometimes they are things he thinks he has heard, but misunderstood. “
Foreign ministers on Saturday stressed that “they expect to work with the US President Donald Trump's administration to achieve a fair and all -enlightened peace in the Middle East, in accordance with the decision of two countries.”
They also welcomed Egypt's plans to hold an international conference in the near future with the United Nations organization, which will focus on the restoration of Gaza and confirmed the UN's main assistance agency, “The main, irreplaceable and irreplaceable role of UNRWA” in the enclave, Who was mostly flattened during the fifteen -month war between Israel and Hamas.
