Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi has told Al Jazeera that the kingdom will not budge in its opposition to US President Donald Trump’s proposal of relocating Palestinians in Gaza to other countries, such as Jordan and Egypt.
His comments come after Jordan’s King Abdullah II met Trump in the White House on Tuesday, where the latter reiterated at a news briefing that the US would be taking over the besieged Gaza Strip emptied of its residents, a proposal critics say is effectively ethnic cleansing, the forcible expulsion of people from their homeland.
