Gaza postwar plan envisions 'voluntary' relocation of entire population
A postwar strategy for Gaza under the Trump administration would implement American trusteeship for at least 10 years, aiming to transform the area into a luxury tourism destination and technology hub. The plan suggests relocating Gaza's 2+ million residents, offering $5,000 cash plus four years of rent and food assistance for those who leave.
The Gaza Reconstitution, Economic Acceleration and Transformation Trust (GREAT Trust) proposes financing through public-private investments, targeting returns of nearly fourfold on a $100 billion investment. Competing proposals for Gaza's future have emerged from multiple sources, including the Biden administration and Palestinian authorities.
Israel is discussing potential countries to host relocated Gazans, but no agreements have been solidified. Trump's vision emphasizes rebuilding Gaza as a "Riviera of the Middle East."
