Kushner is visiting the region to rally support for the administration’s efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. President Donald Trump’s administration has not endorsed a two-state solution, which has long been seen internationally as the only viable path to peace. Egypt issued a statement Thursday saying President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi told Kushner that Egypt supports efforts aimed at resolving the conflict “on the basis of a two-state solution and the creation of Palestinian State with East Jerusalem as its capital.” Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, is promoting the economic component of a yet-unreleased peace plan. The Palestinians have cut ties with the White House, saying Trump’s policies are unfairly biased toward Israel.
