Your guide to what the American elections mean 2024 for Washington and the world
The White House sought to calm fears of a long American military intervention in Gaza, and insisted on Donald Trump’s plan to bear the pocket control that does not necessarily mean placing “shoes on the ground”.
Journalist Caroline Levitt said that while the President presented a “historic proposal to the United States to control Gaza”, he “has not committed” to send American forces “so far.”
“It has become very clear to the president that the United States needs to participate in this reconstruction voltage,” she said on Wednesday. This does not mean shoes on the ground in Gaza. This does not mean that American taxpayers will finance this effort. “
Levitt’s comments come a day after Trump caused a stir in the United States and around the world with a suggestion that the United States should “take control” of the Palestinian enclave and that its population of 2.2 million must be resettled.
Levitte explained that the pocket residents will be “transported temporarily” while rebuilding the tape.
The plan sparked a hostile reaction from many in the President’s party, where some Republicans said that it had moved away from its “first America” agenda and its long criticism of the American intervention in foreign wars “endless”.
“I thought we voted for America first,” said Rand Paul, Republican Senator from Kentucky. “We have no work that is thinking about another occupation to ventilate our treasure and transport the blood of our soldiers.”
Josh Holie, the Republican Senator from Missouri, echoed his concerns. “I don’t know that I think it is the best use of US resources to spend a set of money in Gaza,” he told the Jewish newspaper from the inside.
Lindsey Graham, Republican Senator from South Carolina, described the plan as a “problem.” “I think most Caroline South will not be excited to send Americans to take over Gaza,” he said.
Trump’s members of the Council of Ministers sought to reassure the American party and the US public about the proposal, without providing details about how he worked.
Foreign Minister Marco Rubio said that the president’s proposal “is not intended as a hostile step”, but rather a “offer to rebuild.”
“What it provides very generous is the United States’s ability to enter and help remove debris, help remove ammunition, help reconstruction, rebuild homes, companies and things like that, so that people can go back to say.
Defense Minister Beit Higseth said Trump “is ready to think outside the box” on the case, but he refused to provide details about whether possible military participation was under consideration.
He said, “We are looking to work with our allies, and our counterparts, in diplomacy and comment, to consider all options, but we certainly will not get to the president or provide any details about what we might do or not do.” .
Meanwhile, Democrats accused Trump of supporting “ethnic cleansing” in the pocket and accused the president of abandoning the needs of American voters to send money to a distant area.
“It will be that it will be American policy to replace the Palestinians from the Gaza Strip by the 2MN of the Gaza Strip,” said Chris van Holin, a member of the Democratic Senate of Maryland. “This is ethnic cleansing with another name.”
“It is completely good for Americans working for federal funds, while financing for the Israeli government continues to flow,” said Rashida’s Democratic Congress.
