US President Donald Trump said Palestinians in Gaza would not have the right to return under his plan for US "ownership" of the war-torn territory, contradicting statements by other administration officials who have sought to argue that Trump is calling for only a temporary transfer of its residents.

The details of Trump’s plan are not clear at all, and they grow more vague with each new statement he makes on the matter. “We’re going to build safe communities, a little bit further away from where they are, where all this danger is,” Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, which is scheduled to air Monday, without explaining what that means.

The latest comments build on Trump's statements less than a week before he first laid out his plan for US control of Gaza and turning it into a "Middle Eastern Riviera."

Trump is also pressuring Arab countries to shelter Palestinians, especially US allies Jordan and Egypt to take in Palestinians from Gaza who reject Trump's statements outright.

On Sunday, February 9, King Abdullah II began a working visit to the United States. In Washington, the Jordanian monarch will meet with US President Donald Trump on Tuesday, February 11.

The Jordanian king is scheduled to meet with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Advisor Mike Walz, US President Donald Trump's Special Envoy to the Middle East Steven Witkoff, and members of committees in the Senate and House of Representatives.

The King will meet in Boston with representatives of American companies and higher education institutions, and Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey on Monday.

On Sunday, the King of Jordan met with US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

A well-informed source told Al-Quds newspaper in Washington on Monday: “The moment of truth will come tomorrow, Tuesday, when Trump meets with the Jordanian monarch, King Abdullah II, who considers the issue of a million Palestinians flowing into his country an existential threat.”

“It is quite clear that the Jordanian king is teetering on the brink of falling into the valley because of these statements. Trump has cut off aid to Jordan, which is aid that it lives on, and this is truly astonishing,” the source added, especially since Jordan “has consistently proven itself to be a true and reliable ally, as we saw on April 13 when it shot down Iranian missiles before they reached Israel, and again on October 1, 2024,” according to the source.
