(AFP) There is no record of President Trump calling his proposed Israeli-Palestinian peace plan the "deal of the century." On April 3, 2017, Trump met Egyptian President Sisi, who said he was fully supportive of Trump's attempts to find a "solution to the issue of the century with the deal of the century." In November 2017, the official Palestinian news agency labeled it the "Deal of the century," a phrase commonly used by Palestinian officials to attack the proposals. The phrase then started to seep into English-language reporting on the issue, with the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, AFP and Reuters attributing the phrase to Trump. Yet there is no record of the president or any of his senior officials working on the issue publicly using the phrase. U.S. Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt said, "It's not a label we prefer to use. It has been used in a derogatory way by some media outlets and others." 2019-06-25 00:00:00Full Article
