Abstract

President Donald Trump initially threatened to withhold US aid for Jordan, but later backed off after King Abdullah II agreed to accept 2,000 sick children from Gaza. Trump expressed his desire for the US to take control of Gaza, but Abdullah avoided discussing this plan and instead focused on a future meeting in Saudi Arabia. The proposal to resettle sick children was praised by Trump, despite his controversial idea of turning Gaza into a US-owned "Riviera." Arab leaders, including Abdullah, are navigating their relationships with the US amidst concerns about regional stability and the potential impact of displacing Palestinians.
