(JNS-Israel Hayom) Alex Traiman - U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman clarified on Sunday the process of the application of Israeli sovereignty over Jewish communities and strategic tracts of land in the West Bank that would become part of Israel under the U.S. peace plan. President Trump said on Jan. 28 that "we will form a joint committee with Israel to convert the conceptual map into a more detailed and calibrated rendering so that recognition can be immediately achieved." Speaking at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, Friedman said that in return for the immediate recognition of Israeli annexation of certain territories, the deal "creates a four-year settlement freeze on the 50% of Area C that will go to the Palestinians and will use that as the basis for negotiations." He said that "it seemed like a small price to pay, to recognize Israeli sovereignty over that territory, in exchange for a freeze on the other territory." This is what Friedman referred to as "the deal within the deal." 2020-02-11 00:00:00Full Article
