Kushner rejects calls to delay release of Mideast peace plan
Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, said Thursday the Trump administration would issue its Middle East peace plan, though several regional experts have argued that the plan's release would cause more harm.
WASHINGTON — Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, said Thursday that the administration was determined to put out its Middle East peace framework, likely next month, shrugging off warnings that its likely rejection by the Palestinians could destabilize the status quo.
“I do think our approach has been, is that if we are going to fail, we don’t want to fail doing it the same way it’s been done in the past,” Kushner said in a conversation with Rob Satloff, the Washington Institute for Near East Policy’s executive director, Thursday night.
