Jared Kushner says it’s “unfortunate” that Europe isn’t taking in more Palestinian refugees, suggesting that the “cleaning up” of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip should be accelerated.
Donald Trump’s son-in-law and former senior foreign policy advisor made the comments during a conversation with Professor Tarek Masoud.
“Gaza’s waterfront property could be very valuable … if people would focus on building up livelihoods,” Kushner told Masoud, Harvard University’s Middle East Initiative faculty chair.
“It’s a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but from Israel’s perspective I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up,” he added, using language some have suggested isn’t far removed from ethnic cleansing.
