European Union Commission spokesman Anwar Al-Anoni confirmed that the Gaza Strip is an integral part of the future Palestinian state.

This came in a press statement on Thursday, commenting on US President Donald Trump's plan to seize the Gaza Strip and displace Palestinians from it.

Al-Anoni explained that the European Union continues its full commitment to the two-state solution, which it sees as the only way to achieve lasting peace for both Palestinians and Israelis.

He added: "Gaza is an integral part of the future Palestinian state."

He stressed that the European Union's position is not to allow further forced displacement of Palestinians.

On Tuesday evening, Trump revealed during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House his intention to seize the Gaza Strip and displace the Palestinians from it, which sparked widespread regional and international rejection.

Since January 25, Trump has been promoting a plan to transfer the Palestinians of Gaza to neighboring countries such as Egypt and Jordan, which was rejected by both countries, and was joined by other Arab countries and regional and international organizations.

On January 19, a ceasefire agreement began in the Gaza Strip and a prisoner exchange between Hamas and Israel, which includes three stages, each lasting 42 days. During the first, negotiations will be held to start the second and third, with the mediation of Egypt and Qatar and the support of the United States.
