Trump once called Jared Kushner's Middle East plan the 'deal of the century.' But on Sunday, he left it at 'we'll see what happens' and 'we're doing our best.'
"If we can get a Mideast peace plan that would be good," Trump said. "And when Mike says that, I understand when he says that, because most people think it can’t be done. I think it probably can. But as I say often, we’ll see what happens.”
Kushner and Greenblatt have been working on a peace deal in the Middle East for two years, keeping the details under cover as they try to broker an end to one of the most contentious conflicts in contemporary history. Throughout their efforts, the Trump administration has repeatedly acted in ways antagonistic toward Palestinians, including moving the U.S.
Netanyahu has additional problems of his own: Last week, it became clear he would not be able to form a coalition government. In the absence of a ruling coalition, new elections were called for September.that the economic portion of the plan will focus on bringing investment to the Palestinian territories and is likely to be revealed this summer. Kushner is visiting the Middle East to raise support for a peace conference in Bahrain later this month.
