Nikki Haley hints at yet to be unveiled ‘deal of the century’

Outgoing United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley commented on Washington’s yet-to-be-announced plan for Israeli-Palestinian peace, saying “it is much longer” and takes advantage of new technology. Speaking at a UN Security Council meeting on Tuesday, Haley gave no tangible details of what has been dubbed by US President Donald Trump as the “deal of the century”. “It is much longer. It contains much more thoughtful detail,” Haley told the council which she said she has read. “It recognises that realities on the ground in the Middle East have changed in powerful and important ways.” She added the document has a lot both sides will like and things they will not like. “The Palestinians have everything to gain by engaging in peace negotiations,” Haley said. “This plan will be different from all previous ones. The critical question is whether the response to it will be any different.”
