Sitting alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office, US President Donald Trump declines to commit to supporting a Palestinian state, as he did in the peace plan he presented in his previous term.
“Well, a lot of plans change with time. A lot of death has occurred since I left and now came back,” he says when asked about his 2020 plan that did make that provision.
“Now we are faced with a situation that’s different,” he says, “in some ways better, in some ways worse.”
