Trump campaigned on ending foreign entanglements. Now he wants to own Gaza.

Live Mint  

WASHINGTON : President Trump campaigned on shrinking America’s role abroad. Trump generated global shock waves Tuesday when he said the U.S. should take long-term control of Gaza, suggesting that Palestinians should be relocated while the enclave is rebuilt into the “Riviera of the Middle East." Tuesday’s announcement marked a striking shift for Trump, who described the Middle East as “blood and sand" in his first term, according to a longtime adviser. Even as he seeks to expand America’s footprint abroad, Trump has pursued an “America First" agenda that seeks to bolster domestic manufacturing by imposing stiff tariffs on U.S. allies and adversaries. Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who worked on Middle East policy in Trump’s first term, also sized up Gaza from a development perspective, telling a Harvard professor in February 2024 that Gaza’s waterfront property “could be very valuable."
