Trump to unveil his Israel-Palestine plan on Tuesday

US President Donald Trump said he will unveil his plan to address the Israel-Palestine conflict on Tuesday, despite it already being rejected by the Palestinians.

Trump told reporters on Monday that the plan, known informally as the "deal of the century", would be announced at 12:00 Washington DC time (17:00 GMT) and said he believed the Palestinians would "ultimately" come round to giving their support.

"I think it might have a chance," he said alongside visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House.

"This is an opportunity, we'll see what happens," he added.

"I think we're relatively close, but we have to get other people to agree on it also."

In response to a question about whether releasing the plan now constitutes as election interference in Israel, Trump said: "This is why I'm meeting with [Benny] Gantz - he will be here today."
