The leaders of Gulf Arab states met Friday to strategize with their Egyptian and Jordanian counterparts in an effort to counter President Donald Trump's controversial proposal to redevelop the Gaza Strip under US control and displace its Palestinian residents.
The meeting in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, was in preparation for a broader Arab League summit in Egypt on March 4. It ended after several hours of discussions, particularly of the nations' "joint efforts in support of the Palestinian cause and developments in the Gaza Strip," according to a statement from the Saudi government.
