<p>During a March 2024 discussion at Harvard University, Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and former aide, previewed the president’s proposal for the U.S. to take control of war-ravaged Gaza and turn it into a “Riviera of the Middle East” after relocating Palestinians elsewhere.</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/news/world/2025/2/5/-riviera-of-the-middle-east-trump-touts-plan-for-us-control-of-gaza-strip-1019">&#x27;Riviera of the Middle East&#x27;: Trump touts plan for US control of Gaza Strip</a></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/news/world/2025/2/5/five-obstacles-to-trump-s-designs-on-controlling-gaza-2353">Five obstacles to Trump&#x27;s designs on controlling Gaza</a></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/news/world/2025/2/5/analyst-says-trump-plan-for-gaza-does-not-have-any-connection-to-reality-1328">Analyst says Trump plan for Gaza does not have &#x27;any connection to reality&#x27;</a></div><p>Kushner noted that Gaza’s waterfront could be highly valuable “if people would focus on kind of building up livelihoods,” arguing that funds spent on tunnels and weapons could have been better used for “education or innovation.”</p><p>Trump&#x27;s son-in-law suggested that Israel should evacuate as many civilians as possible from Rafah. &quot;The thing that I would try to do if I was Israel right now is I would just bulldoze something in the Negev. I would try to move people in there. I know that won&#x27;t be the popular thing to do, but I think that that&#x27;s a better option to do, so you can go in and finish the job,&quot; he said.</p><p>On Tuesday (February 5), in his first major Middle East policy announcement, Trump outlined his vision for a resort where international communities could coexist peacefully. This comes after more than 15 months of Israeli bombardment devastated Gaza, killing over 47,000 people, according to Palestinian tallies.</p><p>World leaders said they continued to support the two-state solution that has formed the basis of U.S. policy in the region for decades, which has held that Gaza would be part of a future Palestinian state that includes the Israeli-occupied West Bank.</p><p>(Production: Jose Pablo Diaz)</p>
