Labor chief says Trump-Kim summit ‘can happen here too’

Labor party chairman Avi Gabbay takes to Twitter to enthuse that “what happened tonight…can happen here in the Middle East too.”

“As with any negotiations, the way forward demands building trust (even when it appears impossible) and finding shared interests,” he says.

“It’s just a first step,” he adds, “but leaders with the courage to initiate and bring [people] together can make all the difference. What happened tonight between the United States and North Korea can happen here in the Middle East too, or anywhere. It sounds crazy until it happens.”
