    Juncker’s office says that in a meeting Tuesday, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner shared some of the administration’s thoughts about the way ahead in the region.

    EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini also attended the meeting, called at Kushner’s request.

    The EU officials listened to Kushner’s “ideas and underlined the fundamental interest of the European Union for a lasting and sustainable peace and stability in the region.”

    They say “the economic development of the whole region is crucial. It must be accompanied by viable political progress that takes into account the aspirations of both the Palestinians and the Israelis.”

    ‘Respect’ is not in the Rasha’s vocabulary. He’s a coarse bully, totally unfit for office and over his head in policy and int’l negotiations. Not every ‘deal’ is for a SRO apartment on the Bowery.

    The EU is wrong. They CAN’T respect the aspirations of the palis because their aspirations are to to destroy every last Israeli and take the entire land!
