Elaborating on his ambitious plan, Trump pledged to “take care of the Palestinians and ensure they are not killed.” When asked about the possibility of the United States accepting Palestinian refugees, he said, “We will review each case individually,” but stopped short of committing to a comprehensive policy. However, he stressed that significant changes would take place in Gaza under his administration’s vision.
