US to Announce Middle East Peace Plan After Ramadan - White House Adviser Kushner

The United States will release its Middle East peace plan after the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, White House Adviser Jared Kushner said on Tuesday

WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 23rd April, 2019) The United States will release its middle East peace plan after the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, White House Adviser Jared Kushner said on Tuesday.

"We will wait after Ramadan and then we will put our plan out," Kushner said during an interview at the Time 100 event.

Kushner, who is US President Donald Trump's son in law, said that the Trump administration was getting ready at the end of last year to unveil its peace proposal, but the call for early elections in Israel threw a wrench into those plans.

Kushner described the forthcoming peace proposal as a very comprehensive vision for what can be achieved if people are willing to make some hard decisions.

Trump has stated on numerous occasions that his administration has been preparing a so-called "deal of the century" for an Israeli-Palestinian settlement. However, the details of the plan remain unclear.

In December, Russian Foreign Affairs Minister Sergey Lavrov said that no one has seen the deal yet.

However, Israeli broadcaster Reshet 13 reported in January that Trump's plan envisaged the creation of a Palestinian state covering 90 percent of the West Bank with a divided Jerusalem.
