\n The White House has unveiled its peace plan for Gaza \u2013 which includes a top role for Tony Blair.\n <\/p>\n

The 20-point plan was released by the US government just minutes before Donald Trump<\/strong> and Benjamin Netanyahu held a joint news conference on Monday evening.<\/p>\n

The plan states that if the fighting ends, Gaza will be placed under the control of a transitional government headed by Trump and others, including former British prime minister Mr Blair.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gaza latest: Trump praises Netanyahu at joint news conference<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gaza will “be a deradicalised terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbours” and “redeveloped for the benefit of” its people, the plan adds.<\/p>\n

It also says nobody will be forced to leave Gaza and states there will be increased aid to the enclave. Israel will not occupy or annex Gaza, it says.<\/p>\n

The remaining Israeli hostages being held by Hamas must be released within 24 hours, the plan states. It says this will be followed by Israel releasing Palestinian prisoners.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the White House, Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu<\/strong> said to Mr Trump: “I support your plan to end the war in Gaza which achieves our war aims.”<\/p>\n

“It will bring back to Israel all our hostages, dismantle Hamas’s military capabilities and its political rule, and ensure that Gaza never again poses a threat to Israel,” he said.<\/p>\n

Tony Blair ‘a good man’, says Trump<\/strong><\/p>\n

The US president singled out Mr Blair for praise, labelling him a “good man” as he announced him as one of the political figures who will be on Gaza’s transitional governing body if the plan goes ahead.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to put leaders from other countries on and leaders that are very distinguished leaders, and we’ll have a board,” Mr Trump said. “And one of the people that wants to be on the board is the UK former prime minister Tony Blair. Good man, very good man. And some others.”<\/p>\n

Mr Trump said the body will be called the “Board of Peace”, adding that other members will be named in the coming days.<\/p>\n
