France, Germany, Italy, UK back Arab plan for Gaza reconstruction
The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Italy and the UK say they support the Arab-backed plan for the rebuilding of Gaza that would cost $53 billion and avoid displacing Palestinians from the enclave.
“The plan shows a realistic path to the reconstruction of Gaza and promises – if implemented – swift and sustainable improvement of the catastrophic living conditions for the Palestinians living in Gaza,” the ministers said in a joint statement.
The plan, drawn up by Egypt and adopted by Arab leaders earlier this month, has been rejected by Israel and the United States.
