WASHINGTON _ Jared Kushner hopes that a landmark peace agreement announced last week between Israel and the United Arab Emirates will spawn even greater diplomatic breakthroughs in the Middle East.
But the Palestinian cause may still be an obstacle to achieving similar pacts between Israel and the Arab world, Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, told McClatchy in an interview Monday.
Kushner helped mediate the Israeli-UAE negotiations that successfully concluded last week in the Abraham Accord, a peace agreement that will fully normalize relations between the two countries.
