Lebanese paper: Trump, Egypt’s Sissi agree on regional peace summit

The Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar claims US President Donald Trump and Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sissi agreed during their meeting in Saudi Arabia over the weekend to hold a regional peace summit either in Sharm el-Sheikh in the Sinai Peninsula or in Washington.

The newspaper, which is allied with the Hezbollah terror group, says Trump will discuss the summit with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas when he meets them over the next two days, the Ynet news site reports.

The paper cites a diplomatic source saying that Jordan and Saudi Arabia also plan to be involved in the talks.
