Amman, 1 October 2025 — The Global Network on the Question of Palestine (GNQP), facilitated by the Arab Renaissance for Democracy and Development (ARDD), convened an emergency meeting to examine the recently announced 20-point plan by U.S. Presiden Donald Trump regarding the future of Gaza.
Participants from across the Network engaged in an in-depth exchange on the political and humanitarian implications of the plan. While acknowledging the stated objective of promoting stability, participants expressed concern that certain provisions risk undermining key principles of justice, accountability, and Palestinian rights — including the right to self-determination and return.
The discussion underscored the need for any proposed framework to be firmly grounded in international law and to safeguard the rights and dignity of the Palestinian people. Particular emphasis was placed on ensuring that efforts to address the situation in Gaza are inclusive, transparent, and reflective of Palestinian voices and aspirations, rather than externally imposed arrangements.
Participants also highlighted the importance of maintaining the role of UNRWA and protecting the institutional frameworks that uphold the rights and welfare of Palestinian refugees.
In closing, the GNQP reiterated that sustainable peace can only be achieved through genuine dialogue, respect for international law, and the restoration of Palestinian agency in determining their own future.
