US President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is to tell the US embassy opening ceremony in Jerusalem that both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can "gain more than they give", Reuters reports.
Kushner, who has links to settler groups and has been tasked by Trump with bringing Israelis and Palestinians together, will tell the crowd: "Jerusalem must remain a city that brings people of all faiths together."
"We believe it is possible for both sides to gain more than they give – so that all people can live in peace – safe from danger, free from fear, and able to pursue their dreams," Kushner will say, according to speech excerpts seen by Reuters.
