U.S. President, Donald Trump, opens to discussion the idea of massively displacing nearly two million Gazans, a prospect contemplated only by the most radical Israeli supremacists.
Trump suggests that Gaza will become uninhabitable for 'ten or fifteen years', casting doubt on the willingness to facilitate the reconstruction of the Strip and the improvement of living conditions for its population.
Trump's plan, which brushed over the ongoing step-by-step ceasefire in Gaza indicates an attempt to divert attention from urgent issues.
Any forced displacement of population is strictly prohibited by international law, according to the UN.
The European Union insisted on a two-state solution, but did not express specific criticism towards Trump's approach.
Conclusion: The editorial highlights the alarming prospect of a massive displacement of the Gaza population, critiques Trump's diverting strategy, emphasizes the need to focus on resolving the conflict, and calls for the international community to reject any attempt at ethnic cleansing.
