ROME (Reuters) - The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Italy and Britain said on Saturday they supported an Arab-backed plan for the reconstruction of Gaza that would cost $53 billion and avoid displacing Palestinians from the enclave.

Britain, France, Germany and Italy on Saturday backed a proposal by Muslim-majority nations to rebuild Gaza as a “realistic path”. The counter-proposal to US President Donald Trump’s plan to take over Gaza and displace its residents “shows a realistic path to the reconstruction of Gaza and promises –- if implemented –- swift and sustainable improvement

Foreign ministers say proposal rejected by US and Israel and that does not significantly address Hamas 'shows a realistic path to the reconstruction of Gaza'

France, Germany, Italy, and the UK are backing the plan led by Arab countries for the reconstruction of Gaza, absorbing a budget of Rp800 trillion

The plan is a response to US President Donald Trump's proposal that the US could seize control of the Gaza Strip and turn it into 'the Riviera of the Middle East.'
