Arab foreign ministers teamed up with U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff in Doha to push forward a **massive $53 billion Gaza reconstruction plan** aimed at rebuilding the war-torn region without displacing its residents. The move signals a fresh wave of cooperation—and a clear rejection of past proposals to relocate Gaza’s population. 💡
Rebuilding Hope, Rejecting Displacement
The plan, backed by Qatar, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, and Palestinian leaders, promises to restore Gaza’s infrastructure while keeping its communities intact. 🌆 This marks a direct counter to a controversial U.S. proposal under former President Donald Trump, which suggested moving Gazans to neighboring countries like Egypt and Jordan.
Ceasefire and Peace Take Center Stage
Ministers stressed the urgent need for a lasting ceasefire and 'just peace' based on the two-state solution. 🤝 They emphasized that reconstruction must go hand-in-hand with dialogue to ensure regional security and stability.
With the plan now on the table, all eyes are on how international partners—and especially the U.S.—will respond to this ambitious roadmap. 🗺️ Could this be the start of a new chapter for Gaza?
