Trump sees Gaza as real estate problem – Ex-US Ambassador to Israel, Ross

Former US ambassador to Israel, Mr Dennis Ross, has suggested that President Donald Trump is looking at the crisis in Gaza as “a real estate building problem.”

According to report, Mr Ross believes President Trump does not see it as a political issue.

“I really think he seems to intend this more as: ‘We’re gonna transform an area that has always been impoverished,’” Ross said.

For President Trump, “it’s a real estate building problem, it’s not a political problem,” he added.

“The problem I think for President Trump is that in the region, it’s looked at as a political issue.”

President Trump has a real estate background as he spent decades as a property developer before entering politics.

The Republican had recently said that the US “will take over” the Gaza Strip to level it and rebuild the area.

President Trump lamented that the Gaza Strip has become “a symbol of death and destruction for so many decades and so bad for the people anywhere near it.
