    Jared Kushner has been making headlines recently, particularly in relation to his past comments on the Gaza Strip. On Tuesday, President Donald Trump suggested taking over the war-torn Gaza Strip and turning it into a resort, a proposal that Kushner had first floated nearly a year ago. In a February 2024 interview with Harvard Middle East Initiative Faculty Chairman Tarek Masoud, Kushner said, "Gaza's waterfront property could be very valuable... if people would focus on building up livelihoods." He suggested that those left in Gaza could be moved out, and the area could be rebuilt, echoing Trump's recent comments[2].

    Kushner's past involvement in Middle East peace efforts has been well-documented. As a senior advisor to President Trump, he played a central role in the development of the administration's Israeli-Palestinian peace plan and was instrumental in the Abraham Accords, individual peace deals between Arab nations and Israel[2].

    In other news, Kushner is set to double his stake in leading Israeli financial firm Phoenix Financial. Israeli regulators have allowed Kushner's Affinity Partners to buy an additional 4.95% of the company, as reported by Bloomberg News[4].

    On the public appearance front, Kushner recently participated in a conversation with Tarek Masoud as part of the Middle East Initiative's "Middle East Dialogues" series. The event, which took place on February 15, was a frank and open discussion on the current conflict in the region and the prospects for peace and progress[3].

    The recent proposal by Trump to take over Gaza has sparked international reaction, with Qatar stating that it is too early to talk about the resettlement of Palestinians from the enclave. Doha is currently focused on trying to bring about a ceasefire in the conflict[5].

    In summary, Jared Kushner's recent activities include his past comments on turning Gaza into a resort, his business dealings with Israeli financial firm Phoenix Financial, and his participation in public discussions on Middle East peace efforts. These developments highlight Kushner's ongoing influence in regional policy and his continued involvement in significant business ventures.
