Havana, Feb 5th. - Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez today rejected the claims of the new U.S. administration over Gaza and defended the sovereignty of the coastal enclave and the Palestinian people.
Gaza belongs to the people of Palestine. Israel and its sponsor, the US, must respect it, the chancellor on the X social network stressed.
Rodriguez said the only alternative to ending the conflict is recognition of the independent Palestinian state within pre-1967 borders and with capital in East Jerusalem.
The day before, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he will take control of the Gaza Strip and assured that Palestinians should leave the enclave permanently.
According to the Republican president, taking office means that we will be responsible for dismantling all dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the spot, leveling the place and getting rid of destroyed buildings (by Israel itself with the same weapons provided by Washington) .
At a joint press conference, along with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he said they will create - an economic development that provides an unlimited amount of jobs and housing for the people of the area, do a real job, do something different.
