Jared Kushner Meets with Hamas’s Political Chief in Cairo

President Trump’s son-in-law and envoy Jared Kushner has met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after Israel rejected a 15-point plan for Gaza promoted by President Trump’s so-called Board of Peace. The proposal would see Hamas gradually disarm and turn over governance of the Gaza Strip to an international force in exchange for Israel’s withdrawal. Over the weekend, Kushner met in Cairo with Hamas’s political chief Khalil al-Hayya. Also joining the talks were Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair and Qatari, Turkish and Egyptian mediators. www.democracynow.org
