Kushner: Trump hasn’t decided on Israeli embassy yet
BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 12/03/17 03:26 PM EST
President Trump's senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner said Sunday that the president has yet to decide on the location of the U.S. embassy in Israel, despite reports Trump will again delay moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
“The president is going to make his decision,” Kushner said at a Brookings Institution Event, in comments reported by The Associated Press.
“He is still looking at a lot of different facts," he said.
Kushner has been tasked by the administration to help spearhead peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
The international community recognizes Tel Aviv as Israel's capital, while the country recognizes Jerusalem as their capital.
