Kushner: Israel must help Palestinians if it wants to integrate into Middle East
Jared Kushner on Monday said that Israel must help the Palestinians succeed if it wants to integrate into the Middle East, and that Hamas is looking to fulfil its commitment.
Speaking to CBS News, Kushner, who has no formal role in the White House, but is working as Donald Trump’s emissary to the Middle East said, "When I visited Gaza, I asked where people were returning to. They told me that they were returning to their destroyed homes and setting up tents. It is very sad that people in Gaza are returning to destroyed homes.
"So far, we see that Hamas is looking to fulfil its commitment. We wanted the hostages released and we wanted a real ceasefire that both sides would respect. Both parties wanted to achieve the goal; we just had to find a way to help," he said.
