U.S.-Israel Talks Continue on Sovereignty in Parts of West Bank
(The Hill) Laura Kelly - No final U.S. decision has been made on supporting the extension of Israeli law in parts of the West Bank as outlined in the U.S. peace plan, following a series of meetings at the White House. A senior White House official said Thursday that "meetings this week were productive" but "there is yet no final decision on next steps for implementing the Trump plan. Ambassador Friedman is returning to Israel tonight with Special Envoy Avi Berkowitz and Mapping Committee member Scott Leith for further meetings and analysis." Israeli officials have signaled that U.S. support is key before moving forward.
