Trump’s adviser Kushner to brief UN leaders on Mideast plan
WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump’s senior adviser, Jared Kushner, will brief UN Security Council ambassadors on Thursday about the Middle East peace plan that Trump unveiled last week, a US official said yesterday.
The plan has had a mixed reception, with Palestinians rejecting it but Israel welcoming the president’s decision to recognise Israeli annexation of West Bank settlements.
The plan would set forth a four-year timeline for Palestinians to develop governing institutions and rein in the Hamas militant group in order to gain statehood with a capital based in a village east of Jerusalem.
“Jared will travel to New York on Thursday to brief UNSC ambassadors on our Vision for Peace,” the Us official said.
