A "new Gaza" that becomes "a place of hope." With these words, Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, presented the reconstruction project of the Strip, reduced to a pile of rubble for over two years of war between Hamas and Israel, after the signing ceremony of the Board of PeaceBehind the stage in the main hall of the Davos Forum Congress Center, slides are displayed. One of them contains a map of the Strip showing the location of the infrastructure that will be built: new highways, a new port, a new airport. Then some images representing the new Gaza City and the new Khan Younis, filled with ultra-modern skyscrapers like Dubai or Doha. Sixty million tons of debris need to be removed, said Kushner, who considers it "absolutely feasible to build, in three years, cities for two or three million people, as is happening in the Gulf region."
“The new Gaza could become a place of hope – even a destination – with strong industry and real opportunities for people to thrive and find real jobs.” “Once this process is underway, we believe it could lead to full employment and opportunities for everyone living there,” he continued. Kushner, appointed by his father-in-law among the founding members of the Peace Council, “we now have a new government in Gaza, which will work with Hamas on disarmament to ensure that the principles contained in the Phase Two document are fully implemented.”
Kushner insisted on the disarmament of Hamas as a "crucial" factor. Trump warned that if it doesn't happen, "it will be the end of Hamas." "It all starts with location, you know I'm a real estate developer at heart. It's all about location“Trump continued, coining a new slogan. I said to myself: look at this place on the sea, look at this beautiful piece of property, what it could become for so many people.” “It will be incredible,” Trump concluded, using expressions that immediately sparked reaction and controversy, “people who live in such poverty will live so well.”
