Four European countries support Arab initiative for Gaza reconstruction

The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Italy and Britain announced today that they support the Arab plan for Gaza reconstruction, which costs 53 billion dollars and avoids displacing the Palestinian population of the city.

The Reuters news agency reported that the foreign ministers of these countries said in a joint statement: The plan shows a realistic path for the reconstruction of Gaza that, if implemented, promises a rapid and lasting improvement in the catastrophic conditions for the Palestinians living in Gaza.

This plan, designed by Egypt and approved by Arab leaders last Tuesday, has been rejected by the Israeli regime and US President Donald Trump, who had suggested that the people of Gaza permanently move from the city to foreign countries to provide the opportunity to rebuild Gaza and turn it into a tourist coastal city.
