France denounces Trump's plans to take over Gaza Strip

Paris, Feb 5 (UNI) France on Wednesday affirmed its opposition to any forced displacement of Gaza's Palestinian population, in the wake of remarks made by U.S. President Donald Trump that he plans to take over the Gaza Strip and redevelop it after Palestinians are relocated elsewhere.
Trump made the remarks at a joint press conference with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, without providing details about how to conduct a resettlement procedure.
The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Wednesday that the forced displacement of the Palestinian population of Gaza would constitute a "serious" violation of international law, and an "attack on the legitimate aspirations of Palestinians." It would also represent a major obstacle to the two-state solution and could destabilize the entire region, the ministry said.
