Middle East peace only comes with creation of Palestinian state, Jordan’s king tells Kushner – By Russia Today Staff (Russia Today) / May 29 2019
Jordan’s King Abdullah told US President Donald Trump’s adviser, Jared Kushner, that a lasting Middle East peace can only come with the creation of a Palestinian state on land captured by Israel in a 1967 war, and with east Jerusalem as its capital, Reuters said.
Kushner is leading a US delegation to the Middle East this week seeking support for a late June workshop aimed at helping the Palestinians.
A palace statement on Wednesday said the monarch told Kushner Israel had to withdraw from the West Bank that was under Jordanian control before Israel captured it in the 1967 Arab-Israeli war.
Jordan is reportedly worried that a still-secret Washington plan to end the Arab-Israeli conflict could jettison the two-state solution.
