German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier on Wednesday dismissed Donald Trump’s suggestion that the U.S. take over Gaza and develop it into a resort, calling the idea “unacceptable.”
Speaking alongside Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan at a joint press conference at the Presidential Palace in Ankara, Steinmeier warned that proposals to expel Palestinians from Gaza were not only legally unsound but also unlikely to be a “serious basis” for upcoming talks between regional actors and the U.S. administration.
“Such proposals are not only unacceptable under international law. I also do not believe that they will form a serious basis for the upcoming talks,” Steinmeier said.
Trump’s remarks have drawn global criticism. Russia, China, and Germany have warned that the plan could fuel “new suffering and new hatred,” while Saudi Arabia has rejected it outright.
Barely two weeks into his return to office, Trump’s announcement marked a stark departure from decades of U.S. policy. The proposal followed nearly 16 months of Israeli bombardment that has left Gaza in ruins and killed more than 47,000 people, according to Palestinian figures.
