President Donald Trump welcomed Jordan's King Abdullah II to the White House on Tuesday for a bilateral meeting, during which Trump touted his plan to 'take,' 'hold,' and 'cherish' the war-torn Gaza Strip. As he appeared alongside Trump, Abdullah did not reject the plan and pledged to accept some 2,000 Gazan refugees. Later, though, Abdullah said he 'reiterated Jordan's steadfast position against the displacement of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.' Trump, for his part, openly touted his call to take control of Gaza.
