What does the Middle East make of Trump's Gaza 'Riviera' plan?

Sky News Daily

Wednesday, 5 February 2025 - 22 minutes

Donald Trump has proposed the US should take over Gaza and that the two million Palestinians living there should be resettled elsewhere. The US president argued that Gaza was a "demolition site" and that it could be turned into a "Middle East Riviera" under US control.   His comments break decades of US foreign policy which has emphasised a two-state solution for Israelis and Palestinians. They have been described as "dangerous" by multiple countries.  On the Sky News Daily, Niall is joined by international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn to discuss the fall-out in countries in the region.  Plus, Alistair Bunkall gives us the reaction from Israel and explains the significance of Gaza to Palestinians.   Producer: Alex Bishop Editor: Wendy Parker
