Following Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu??’s meeting on Sunday with US President Donald Trump�s senior adviser Jared Kushner and National Security Adviser Robert O�Brien, the three held a press conference from the prime minister’s residence in Jerusalem.

Netanyahu said that it was a special pleasure to host the US delegation prior to the historic first-ever commercial passenger flight from Israel to the United Arab Emirates.

�It will pave the way for other countries to normalize their ties with Israel,” the prime minister said in reference to the Israeli-UAE deal. “I think for too long the Palestinians have had a veto on peace. Not only between Israel and the Palestinians but between Israel and the Arab world.”

�If we have to wait for the Palestinians, we�ll have to wait forever. No longer.�
