【Focus: Trump's son-in-law proposes transforming Gaza into a "metropolis"]
On December 19, 2025, in Washington, the U.S. "Wall Street Journal" wrote in a press release:
A team led by Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of U.S. President Trump and an external advisor, Steven Witkoff, the special envoy for Middle East affairs, and two senior White House assistants, has developed a draft aimed at transforming the war-torn Gaza Strip into a shining metropolis.
The "classified but not secret" presentation made by U.S. officials to major potential investors, including Turkey and Egypt, contains 32 slides with images of high-rise buildings, charts, and cost tables. They also discussed high-speed rail and smart grids.
The project does not specifically disclose which companies will fund it, but the U.S. is prepared to cover about 20% of the "partial" reconstruction costs over 10 years. The report also does not provide data on where the 2 million Palestinians will live during the reconstruction period.
