Jared Kushner told CBS’ « 60 Minutes » on Sunday that Gaza ceasefire negotiations were hindered by decades of diplomatic word games between Israel and Hamas.
President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, dove into details on Sunday’s « 60 Minutes » about negotiating the Gaza ceasefire deal and peace, following decades of « stupid word games » in the region.
Kushner spoke alongside U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff about their role in helping to accomplish the deal between Israel and Hamas after their two-year war. Host Lesley Stahl described the two as relying on the « intensely personal techniques of real estate dealmakers » which included « dangling presidential promises, protections or punishments » as opposed to standard diplomatic techniques.
Kushner told Stahl that the issues were ultimately « simple », with the difficulty coming from having to play the « stupid word games » brought upon by diplomats.
