The United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Wednesday rejected any attempts to displace Palestinians after US President Donald Trump suggested taking over the Gaza Strip.
The UAE’s foreign ministry stated its categorical rejection of any infringement on Palestinian rights or attempts at displacement, according to a statement sent to AFP.
Trump’s proposal, made during a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has drawn criticism worldwide, including from close US allies Britain and France.
“The UAE underscored the importance of finding a serious political horizon to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and establish an independent Palestinian state,” the statement read.
The UAE reaffirmed its belief that regional stability can only be achieved through a two-state solution.
