JTA - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that President Donald Trump has a “very able team” led by Jared Kushner working on brokering peace between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs.
He also called them “very creative” during an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria onstage at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The interview, held on Thursday, was broadcast Sunday on CNN.
“They have many, many abilities,” Netanyahu said of Kushner and his team. “The thing the people don’t realize is that these people have made their mark in the markets, in real estate. Now, this is not only a real estate deal, it’s fundamentally not a real estate deal but a problem recognizing Israel’s existence, the problem of not recognizing a Jewish state in any boundary. But it also has its real estate elements and they are, I have to say, very creative.”
