'I think we all have to recognise that if there ever is a deal, it's not going to be along the lines of the Arab peace initiative.' White House senior adviser Kushner on Israeli-Palestinian deal
White House senior adviser Jared Kushner says an Israeli-Palestinian deal will have to be somewhere"between the Arab Peace Initiative and between the Israeli position".
Reaching an Israeli-Palestinian deal along the lines of the Arab Peace Initiative will not be possible, requiring instead a stance between that and the Israeli position, White House senior adviser Jared Kushner said in an interview with Al Jazeera. As part of the Arab Peace Initiative, Arab states led by Saudi Arabia have called for a Palestinian state drawn along borders that pre-date Israel's capture of territory in a 1967 war as well as a capital in east Jerusalem and the right of return for refugees, points rejected by Israel.
The lack of a political solution, which Washington has said would be unveiled later, has prompted rejection not only from Palestinians but in Arab countries with which Israel would seek normal relations.
