Donald Trump pressed Egypt to take the Palestinians from Gaza, causing the US president to be able to use great help as a idea to resettle people from the pocket.

Speaking to correspondents in the first air force on Monday, the US President repeated his call – which sparked anger from the Palestinians and Arabs throughout the Middle East – for both Egypt and Jordan to seize Ghazan and help “Clean” the tape. He added that he spoke to the President of Egypt, Abdel Fata El -Sisi.

“I hope some will take. Trump said when he was asked how Sisi responded.” He is a friend of mine. It is in a very approximate part of the world, to be honest. As they say, it is an approximate neighborhood. But I think he will do so, and I think the King of Jordan will do that too. “

Egyptian officials denied an invitation between Trump and Sisi. Since Trump presented this proposal for the first time during the weekend, Cairo and Amman strongly rejected the idea, which they are afraid to undermine the long Palestinian hopes of establishing their condition and security.

Analysts said that Trump’s comments, which came a few days after Foreign Minister Marco Rubio Immediate stop To work on almost all US foreign aid programs, emphasized the possible financial lever that Washington had on both Egypt and Jordan, in addition to the American President’s readiness to install him.

“This is a classic tactic of Trump negotiations, it comes with an extremist position for. Sanam Fail, director of the Middle East and North Africa Program in Chatham House, said:” Get a place in the middle, “said Trump’s demands touched on” real existential questions ” “Jordan and Egypt.

On Tuesday, the first page of the daily pyramids in Egypt appeared in a large picture of the displaced Palestinians who flow to northern Gaza with the title: Egypt [speaks] As one man: People reject the efforts of displacement and support to protect national security because the Palestinians write the “epic of return”. “

The Jordanian Foreign Minister, Iman Safadi, was similarly rejecting, saying on Sunday that “the solution to the Palestinian issue lies in Palestine.”

“Jordan is dedicated to Jordan and Palestine for the Palestinians,” he said.

The Arabs have warned for more than a year of any moves to expel the Palestinians from Gaza, saying it would be closer to 1948, when hundreds of thousands of their homes were forced or fled in the fighting that accompanied the founding of Israel. Palestinians refer to that period in the name of Nakba, or a disaster.

Michael and Hed Hanna, director of the American program in the International Crisis Group, said that although it is not clear to what extent will Trump go, one pressure point on Egypt will be $ 1.3 billion in the annual military assistance that Cairo received to buy American weapons and spare parts For the American military baccalaureate purchased in previous years.

Hanna said that the assistance, which started in 1978 when Cairo took the first steps towards a peace agreement with Israel, signed next year, was the “backbone of relations.” It reached more than $ 50 billion over the years.

Military aid to Egypt and Israel were exempted from a three -month contract for international aid announced by Rubio.

Hanna added that if Trump tries to force Egypt to transfer the Palestinians from the displaced people GazaIt will be “a big change in the relationship.”

He said: “The United States has long worked on the assumption that it would be dangerous for Egypt and it was something to be avoided.” He added that the idea of ​​resettlement of the Palestinians was put forward at the beginning of the Gaza war, as Egypt said that it may threaten local stability because the military and public opinion will agree.

“The massive flow of the Palestinians would raise fears of revival of the rebellion [by an Isis affiliate] In Sinai due to the mixing of Palestinian and Egyptian militants, Hanna said.

Analysts said the United States can use similar pressure against Jordan, as Washington is the largest provider of foreign aid, on which the fragile economy in Jordan depends greatly.

According to the American embassy in Amman, the United States has provided $ 31 billion in bilateral assistance since relations were established in 1949, and the two countries recently signed a memorandum of understanding according to Washington that will provide 1.45 billion dollars annually until 2029.

Diplomats said that Oman officials were rushing to understand Trump’s intentions, and in addition to blocking aid, the United States could also exert pressure by imposing a customs tariff. One of them said: “Given the presence of Jordan’s economy at the present time, any step can have a greater impact than you may think.”

A great influx of Palestinians will have great repercussions on the gentle political and economic situation of Jordan: the 11 million country is already home to more than 2 million Palestinians, while its economy may be strained through the cost of supporting hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees.

Fachel said that the implementation of Trump’s idea “really threatens security dynamics in both countries and the political legitimacy of leaders.”

“It will be very difficult [for them] To Kowtow on these issues and a quick vision as we saw in the case of Colombia or Canada [when pressured by Trump]. This is a very different dynamic. “
