In an apparent softening of his proposal to take over the Gaza Strip, US President Donald Trump asserted Wednesday that the plan does not involve expelling Palestinians.
During a press spray with Ireland’s Prime Minister Michael Martin in the Oval Office, a reporter asked the Irish leader about Trump’s plan to “to expel Palestinians out of Gaza.”
“Nobody’s expelling any Palestinians,” Trump piped in.

When Trump introduced the idea at the beginning of February during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to the White House, he said the Strip’s population of roughly 2 million people would be “permanently” relocated.
When pressed as to whether this would be done by force, Trump insisted that no Gazans actually want to remain in the war-torn Strip.
