Former U.S. ambassador to Israel, Dennis Ross, has indicated that President Donald Trump may be approaching the Gaza crisis as “a real estate building problem.”

In an interview with BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Ross suggested that Trump doesn’t view it as a political issue.

“I really think he seems to intend this more as: ‘We’re gonna transform an area that has always been impoverished,’” Ross said.

For Trump, “it’s a real estate building problem, it’s not a political problem,” he added.

“The problem I think for President Trump is that in the region, it’s looked at as a political issue.”

Trump’s background in real estate is well-known, as he spent many years as a property developer before entering politics.

The Republican leader recently claimed that the U.S. “will take over” the Gaza Strip to demolish and rebuild the area.

Trump expressed regret over how the Gaza Strip has long been “a symbol of death and destruction for so many decades and so harmful for the people living nearby.”
