U.N. Chief Warns Trump to ‘Avoid Ethnic Cleansing’ in Gaza

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned political parties involved in the ongoing conflict of Gaza on Wednesday to “avoid all forms of ethnic cleansing.”

Trump shocked the Middle East on Tuesday evening by declaring that America would “take over the Gaza Strip.” This is because a small land between Egypt and Israel is currently controlled by Hamas, a genocide terrorist organization. Hamas has been in formal war with Israel since October 7, 2023, invading the country, massacres 1,200 random people, acquiring dozens of other people, killing infants, gang rape He is engaged in a wide range of atrocities such as the adulterous sec of the corpse.

Hamas has control Gaza since 2007. Meanwhile, it got deeply involved in the private infrastructure of the strip, setting up terrorist facilities in hospitals, schools and residential areas. This strategy has made Gazan a human shield position as attacks by other political parties aimed at neutralizing the ability of Hamas to engage in Israel or terrorist activities increased the likelihood of civilian casualties. essentially forced to.

The Hamas-Israel War is in a temporary ceasefire following negotiations in January. Gaza itself has already been poor and suffered severe damage after nearly 20 years of Hamas rule, but Trump will allow Gaza's civilians to continue to exist until it is completely rebuilt on Tuesday. suggests it is too popular.

“The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will work with that,” Trump told reporters. “We love it and are responsible for dismantling all the dangerous bombs and other weapons on the site…and remove the destroyed buildings [and] Create an unlimited number of employment and economic development to supply houses. ”

“I think you'll make it [Gaza] Internationally. An incredible place. I think the possibility of the Gaza Strip is incredible,” he continued. “And I think there are representatives from all over the world there.”

Indirectly dealing with those statements, Guterres I warned Officials are involved in a meeting addressing the issue of Palestine on Wednesday.

“It's important to stay true to the foundations of international law. It's essential to avoid any form of ethnic cleansing,” Guterres argued. “Durable peace requires concrete, irreversible and lasting progress towards the solution of two states, the end of occupation, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. Gaza is an integral part is.”

Guterres didn't mention Trump in his name or Gaza plan, but many observers thought he was going to hint at it directly. Guterres spokesman Stephen Dujaric answered a question about the Trump plan just before his statement that he told Guterres, “Forced displacement of people equals ethnic cleansing.”

Elsewhere in his remarks, Guterres has repeatedly established a universally recognized state of “Palestine,” including Gaza, but has not made clear whether it involves political participation by Hamas. did. He provided an unfair condemnation of the October 7 attack.

Trump's call for the US to rebuild Gaza, following his remarks in January, claimed he did not believe it is possible for civilians to continue living in Gaza in their current state. In his remarks with reporters that month, he proposed that he wanted neighboring Egypt and Jordan to “take people” to live in Gaza during the reconstruction process.

“I want to take people to Egypt, but I want to take people to Jordan. You're probably talking about a million and a half people, so we're just cleaning up all of that. ” Trump said. Gaza described it as “literally a demolition site.”

“I would like to join some of the Arab countries and build homes elsewhere. …It could be temporary and long term,” he added. I did.

Jordan and Egyptian governments have vocally advocated to support the Palestinians and their rights, but argued that providing Palestinians with a escapism from life under Hamas would undermine the creation of the Palestinian state. He resolutely refused to take away Palestinian refugees. Amman and Cairo responded negatively to Trump's call for them to help the Palestinians in January.

“All talk about alternative homelands for the Palestinians will be rejected. We will not accept it and will continue to face it,” argued Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi. “Jordan is for the Jordanians.”
The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that “by temporary or permanent means, whether temporary or permanent means, any categorical denial of any action that undermines these rights, such as expanding settlements, annexing lands, or evacuating Palestinians. I emphasized it.”

Trump's comments about Gaza's US acquisition this week came in the context of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visiting Washington. The Israeli government appears to support the plan, and on Thursday announced it had ordered the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) operating in Gaza as part of its war with Hamas, with all Palestinians trying to leave Gaza saying that I'm asking to do it.

“The plan includes exit options through land intersections and special arrangements for departures by sea and air,” Israel Katz, Israel Defense Minister, announced. “Souths such as Spain, Ireland and Norway are legally required to allow Gaza people to enter their territory,” he said.

“The Gaza people should have the right to freedom of movement and migration, as is customary everywhere in the world,” he concluded in a message announcing the policy.
