Trump's son-in-law Kushner plans to visit Israel next week

According to Axios, Trump's son-in-law Kushner plans to visit Israel next week to talk about the situation in Gaza. This will be the first time that Kouchner has visited Israel since January this year. This visit comes at a time when the White House and the Peace Council of Trump are trying to move forward with the next phase of the Gaza plan, which will focus on the disarmament of Hamas and a possible Israeli withdrawal. The Netanyahu Government is highly sceptical about the United States plan for Gaza, and the upcoming October elections have further increased the political sensitivity of the issue. One United States official said: “We have reached consensus on strategic objectives, but Israel has expressed some doubts about the plan and we would like to engage in a dialogue with them to ensure coherence between the two sides.” At the same time, the official noted that the exact dates of the visit might change. Kouchner may also travel to other Middle East countries to meet with regional leaders involved in Gaza. The visit showed that the White House did not want Israeli elections to hinder the implementation of the next phase of the plan. At the same time, Netanyahu was also reluctant to make concessions that might damage his political image, but he likewise did not wish to clash with Trump before the elections。
