US President Donald Trump has ruffled many feathers since he announced his proposal to “take over” Gaza.

According to him, more than two million Palestinians should leave “to somewhere nice and safe” like Jordan or Egypt – while he builds a new riviera on the Mediterranean in Gaza.

This idea has angered the international community, and the Arab world has downright rejected it.

But what can they suggest instead?

A meeting on Friday of Gulf nations in Riyadh joined by Egypt and Jordan, and ended with no concrete counter-proposals.

They will be meeting in Cairo in the coming weeks. But will they be able to make Trump change his mind?
