  • US Officials Visiting Mideast to Seek Backing for Peace Plan Later This Month, White House Senior Adviser Jared Kushner and Other U.S
    Newsletter Friday February 8, 2019 Newsletters from: Send to a Friend | Print | US officials visiting Mideast to seek backing for peace plan Later this month, White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and other U.S. officials will brief diplomats in at least five Arab countries on the economic section of a U.S. proposal for Israel-Palestinian peace, which they will be asked to largely bankroll. Associated Press and Israel Hayom Staff Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner | Photo: AP White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and other administration officials are headed to the Middle East later this month to brief diplomats in at least five countries on the economic section of a U.S. proposal for peace between Israel and the Palestinians. Kushner, who is U.S. President Donald Trump's son-in-law, will be joined by U.S. Mideast envoy Jason Greenblatt; U.S. envoy on Iran Brian Hook; and other administration officials who have worked on the economic part of the plan. Stops are confirmed in Oman, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Qatar. Other stops could be added to the trip, according to a White House official. The plan includes an economic development proposal for Palestinians that foresees major infrastructure and industrial work, particularly in the Gaza Strip. For the plan to succeed or even pass the starting gate, it will need at least an initial buy-in from both Israel and the Palestinians as well as from the Gulf Arab states, which officials say will be asked to substantially bankroll the economic portion.
