U.S. President Donald Trump said Board of Peace member states have contributed $7 billion to the reconstruction of Gaza, adding that the United States will contribute another $10 billion.
Gaza is “no longer a hotbed of radicalism and terror,” he said. “Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, UAE, Morocco, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and Kuwait have all contributed more than $7 billion to the relief.”
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) “is raising $2 billion for the support of Gaza,” Trump continued. “Additionally, Japan has just committed to host an aid fundraiser … which will be attended by other nations, and the region, including South Korea, the Philippines, Singapore, and others. I know that China is going to be involved and I think Russia is going to be involved.”
He added that the United States “is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the board of peace.”
