Trump’s outgoing peace envoy expected to meet Gantz Monday
Jason Greenblatt, US President Donald Trump’s outgoing peace envoy, will likely meet tomorrow with Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz.
The Kan public broadcaster quotes Gantz’s office saying there has been talk about meeting tomorrow, but a sit-down has not been finalized.
Greenblatt, who is set to soon leave the White House, met Friday with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Blue and White overtook Netanyahu’s Likud in last week’s elections as Israel’s largest party, but neither Gantz nor the premier has a clear path to a government.
The continued political stalemate in Israel could further delay the release of the already long-delayed US peace plan, which the White House had said it would release after the Israeli elections.
