Despite Prime Minister Netanyahu's statement after President Trump's century deal was announced, the president's adviser was interviewed, saying he did not think Israel would make the move early next week. At the same time, Prime Minister Yonatan Orich's adviser tweeted that he wrote "Sovereignty over all settlement on Sunday"

Kushner: "Do not think Israel will annex the Jordan Valley and settlements on Sunday"

Donald Trump's adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, said Wednesday night in an interview with CNN that he does not think Israel will annex the Jordan Valley and settlements this weekend, or at least not as far as he knows. This is despite the fact that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said after the publication of the century deal that he intends to bring the government's approval to a decision to apply Israeli law in the Jordan Valley and all Jewish communities in Judea Samaria already at the upcoming government meeting. At the same time, Netanyahu's adviser, Jonathan Orich, deleted a tweet he posted earlier today that he wrote "Sovereignty over All Settlement on Sunday."

However, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in an interview with News 13 that the United States would support the annexations that Israel is planning on Judea Samaria "as long as they match the maps of the American plan." United States Ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, also expressed full support for Netanyahu's immediate annexation intentions, saying in a briefing to the reporters that "Israel should not wait, should not wait at all. The map presented in the program. "

Likud officials said that Netanyahu's intention is to pass the resolution next week, and that there may be only a few days of technical rejection to close the decision details that will be submitted to the government and the map of the localities in which Israeli law is applied.

Yesterday Netanyahu announced that the upcoming government meeting on Sunday would bring the decision to apply Israeli law to the settlements. In a briefing to reporters in Washington following the presentation of the century deal, Netanyahu said he would apply sovereignty to communities in Judea and Samaria and the military government be abolished.

"The Trump program is a historic breakthrough with huge achievements we have never received," he said. "Israel immediately receives American recognition of Israeli law on the Jordan Valley and the Northern Dead Sea, in all the communities in Judea and Samaria and extensive areas of Judea and Samaria, including land reserves that ensure continued settlement," he said. "The IDF will continue to control security throughout. The area is west of the Jordan, including in the territories that encompass all localities and access routes to them. " At this time, Netanyahu meets with the heads of the Yesha Council and the settlements that arrived in Washington and is expected to tell them that the plan is an opportunity of "once a century and must be seized."
