Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe US is taking its first step toward rolling out the Trump administration’s long awaited Israeli-Palestinian peace plan, and is set to announce a meeting focusing on economic aspects of the long-shot proposal, CNN reports.
The channel, citing a senior administration official, says the administration will announce plans for an economic “workshop,” designed to boost investment in Palestinian territories, to take place in Bahrain on June 25 and 26.
“People are letting their grandfathers’ conflict destroy their children’s futures. This will present an exciting, realistic and viable pathway forward that does not currently exist,” Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, seen as a main architect of the plan, tells CNN.
