A senior Hamas official outside Gaza denied the claims, saying that relocation plans “were not raised at all.”

The United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden plan to follow France in rejecting an invitation to join the proposed Peace Council. According to Bloomberg, President Trump wants the council’s charter and governing committee powers signed on Thursday in Davos. Around 60 countries have been invited to participate, including Russia. France was the first country to reject the proposal.

Israel has also voiced opposition. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the Gaza committee under the Peace Council “was not agreed with Israel and contradicts its policy,” particularly due to the inclusion of representatives from Qatar and Turkey. Not all European leaders are refusing the initiative. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has positioned herself as a potential mediator, saying she is “ready to do her part.”
