On 2 January 2024, the U.S. Embassy in Qatar released an official statement rejecting recent statements made by Israeli ministers advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza.
Matthew Miller, Department Spokesperson, made the press statement:
The United States rejects recent statements from Israeli Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza. This rhetoric is inflammatory and irresponsible. We have been told repeatedly and consistently by the Government of Israel, including by the Prime Minister, that such statements do not reflect the policy of the Israeli government. They should stop immediately.
We have been clear, consistent, and unequivocal that Gaza is Palestinian land and will remain Palestinian land, with Hamas no longer in control of its future and with no terror groups able to threaten Israel. That is the future we seek in the interests of Israelis and Palestinians, the surrounding region, and the world.
