Egypt calls for Palestinian state during Kushner visit | |
2019-08-02 | |
Kushner is visiting the region to rally support for the administration’s efforts to resolve the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict. President Donald Trump ![]() ’s administration has not endorsed a two-state solution, which has long been seen internationally as the only viable path to peace. Egypt issued a statement Thursday saying President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi told Kushner that Egypt supports efforts aimed at resolving the conflict "on the basis of a two-state solution and the creation of Paleostinian State with East Jerusalem as its capital." "We have to say this publicly...for the rubes" Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, is promoting the economic component of a yet-unreleased peace plan. The Paleostinians have cut ties with the White House, saying Trump’s policies are unfairly biased toward Israel. | |
