White House Aims to Build Support from Arab Allies for Mideast Peace Plan
(Wall Street Journal) Vivian Salama - Senior Trump administration officials will travel to the Middle East this month to unveil the administration's long-term economic vision for Israel and the Palestinian territories. "We understand that if the political aspect of [the peace plan] is not solid, the economic aspect is meaningless. But at the same time, the political aspect will not succeed without a proper economic plan," a senior White House official said Thursday. "If regional leaders think our ideas offer a transformative vision for the Palestinians, for integrating the Palestinians and Israel into the region, and if they agree to financially support our plan, that would be a success."
