Trump’s Gaza plan: The end of the two-state solution?

President Donald Trump wants to take over Gaza and rebuild it as an international hotspot for business and tourism. The plan could drastically change the future of the Middle East.

But can that ever happen if Gazans are moved out of Gaza, as President Trump has suggested? On this episode, presenter Jonny Dymond speaks to the BBC’s diplomatic correspondent Paul Adams and the longstanding – if distant – diplomatic hopes for two-state solution.The Global Story brings you trusted insights from BBC journalists worldwide.
