Egypt is reportedly pushing for a special meeting of the 57-member Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to solidify opposition to President Donald Trump’s proposal for moving the Palestinians out of Gaza to facilitate reconstruction.
BREITBART -- The National (UAE) on Thursday quoted “sources briefed on the effort” who said Saudi Arabia and Qatar are also firmly opposed to Trump’s plan, and intend to help Egypt rally the rest of the OIC in opposition.
No firm date has been chosen for the OIC meeting, but would evidently be held sometime after the Arab League summit in Cairo on February 27.
Saudi Arabia has also invited the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to summit in Riyadh on February 20 to “discuss” Trump’s plan. Given that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas — currently serving the 20th year of the four-year term he was elected to in 2005 — has also been invited, the “discussion” is unlikely to be favorable.
