U.S. President Donald Trump has denied that Palestinians are being forcibly displaced from Gaza, contradicting his previous proposal to turn the region into a luxury destination. Earlier, Trump had suggested that the U.S. should seize control of Gaza and relocate its population, envisioning it as the “Riviera of the Middle East.” In his initial proposal last month, he advocated for the permanent removal of Gaza’s nearly two million residents. However, his latest statement on Wednesday insists that no displacement is occurring.

Trump emphasized that the final decision rests with him.

The Trump administration has slashed 83% of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) programs following a six-week review aimed at reducing the agency’s activities. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that 5,200 contracts, worth billions of dollars, have been canceled, citing concerns that some programs were against U.S. national interests. The remaining 1,000 projects will now be managed more efficiently under the State Department’s oversight, with congressional involvement. Rubio also praised the Department of Government Efficiency, led by billionaire Elon Musk, for its role in the review. The workforce at USAID, which once exceeded 10,000 employees, is now at risk of shrinking to fewer than 300.
