Following a bilateral \u2064call,both leaders expressed their disapproval of displacing Palestinians and\u200d emphasized the \u2063need for the Palestinians to achieve their legitimate rights. They reiterated their commitment to maintaining the \u200bGaza ceasefire and\u200b increasing aid to the area. <\/p>\n<p>Although Jordan and\u200d Egypt aim to cooperate with the U.S. \u200bto achieve peace in the Middle East,\u2064 they firmly reject solutions that would result in a\u2062 permanent settlement of Palestinians within their borders. They \u2062fear that an influx of refugees could lead to security threats from terrorist groups like Hamas. Despite their objections, it remains uncertain if their stance will influence\u2064 Trump&#8217;s plans, which he promotes as a transformative project for Gaza. Additionally, reports\u2064 suggest that El-Sisi may delay an upcoming visit to the White House, reflecting the strained relations due to differing positions on this issue.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">King of Jordan, Egyptian president reject Trump&rsquo;s plans to remove Palestinians from Gaza<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1984293\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/jordan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">King Abdullah II of Jordan<\/a> and President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi are forming a united front to oppose the White House&rsquo;s plans for reconstructing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/gaza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Gaza Strip<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The world leaders simultaneously issued statements expressing their disapproval of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">President Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s proposal on Thursday after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/middle-east-leaders-in-panic-mode-over-trump-proposal-for-us-control-of-gaza-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"... leaders in panic mode over Trump ... for US control of ... - Washington Examiner\">bilateral phone call<\/a> that &ldquo;covered the importance of maintaining the Gaza ceasefire and increasing aid to all areas in the Strip.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The two leaders reaffirmed their shared position in rejecting the displacement of Palestinians, and their keenness on maintaining coordination to ensure the Palestinians gain their full legitimate rights,&rdquo; Jordan&rsquo;s Royal Hashemite Court announced.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jordan&rsquo;s King Abdullah II arrives at the White House, Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2025, in Washington.
