Jared Kushner, Trump, Saudis, and Gaza
The following is an overview of their involvement: Since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war in October 2023, Jared Kushner, Donald Trump, and Saudi Arabia have been involved in the conflict in Gaza from different angles
Jared Kushner
In October 2025, Kushner returned to the forefront of Middle East diplomacy by acting as an envoy for Trump in peace talks in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. He was dispatched by Trump, alongside current Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, to help finalize a deal that would see all hostages released from Gaza and a partial withdrawal of Israeli troops.
The deal was based on a 20-point proposal that Trump put forward a week earlier. Kushner and Witkoff traveled to Egypt and Israel to present the plan to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and the Israeli cabinet, respectively.
In February 2024, Kushner made controversial comments about Gaza at a Harvard University event, calling its “waterfront property” potentially “very valuable”. These remarks were widely condemned as insensitive to the humanitarian crisis.
Following his time in the Trump administration, Kushner established the private equity firm Affinity Partners, which has received significant funding from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF). This has led to accusations of potential conflicts of interest, as he has engaged in both business and diplomatic activities in the region.
Donald Trump
In his second term as president, Trump’s administration has played a central role in brokering a ceasefire deal in Gaza. His administration has engaged in negotiations with both Israel and Hamas to end the two-year-long war.
In September 2025, Trump unveiled his 20-point peace proposal for Gaza, which included provisions for a ceasefire, hostage release, and post-war governance. The plan was welcomed by the Palestinian Authority and several Arab nations.
Trump has also used his influence to pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu into agreeing to the ceasefire. This includes a September 2025 meeting at the White House where Netanyahu apologized to Qatar for an Israeli attack in Doha.
Earlier in 2025, during his first foreign trip of his second term, Trump visited Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, but not Israel. This was seen by some as a shift in U.S. foreign policy toward the Middle East.
Saudi Arabia
Following Trump’s announcement of the ceasefire deal in Gaza, Saudi Arabia welcomed the agreement and expressed hope that it would lead to a “just and comprehensive peace based on the two-state solution”.
During Trump’s May 2025 visit, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman advocated for a solution to the Gaza war that would lead to the goals set forth in the Arab Peace Initiative.
Throughout the conflict, Saudi Arabia has maintained a position of supporting a two-state solution while also engaging with the Trump administration on regional issues.
Saudi Arabia’s significant investment in Kushner’s firm has also drawn attention to its potential influence on U.S. foreign policy in the region.
