US President Donald Trump said he would like to see Jordan and Egypt taking in more Palestinian refugees from Gaza- in a move that could “just clean out” the war-torn enclave. Mr Trump said he had held a call earlier on Saturday with King Abdullah II of Jordan and would speak with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi on Sunday. He said he complimented Jordan for having accepted Palestinian refugees and that he told the king, “I’d love for you to take on more, because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now, and it’s a mess. It’s a real mess.” He said the movement of Palestinians to other countries could be “temporary or long term”.
