Jared Kushner wants Israel to review US peace plan before annexation

Jared Kushner, son-in-law and advisor to Donald Trump, said on Thursday that he hopes Israel will look closely at the US peace plan for the Middle East before annexing Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank.

During his campaign for parliamentary elections, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to annex these settlements if he won a new mandate.

During a dinner at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, an American think tank, Jared Kushner said that the peace plan for the Middle East was about to be unveiled and that Israel and the Palestinians had to wait before to take unilateral measures.

"I hope both parties, Israeli and Palestinian, will take a look at it before taking unilateral action," he said, adding that he did not discuss the issue of annexing settlements. of settlement with Netanyahu...........
