Jared Kushner, the top adviser to former US president, Donald Trump, is forming a group aiming at strengthening the ties between Israel and four Arab states, including Morocco, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
According to the same source, Kushner is founding the "Abraham Accords Institute for Peace," to work on deepening agreements Israel reached last year with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco.
Kushner, who is married to Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, is writing a book about his experience in helping broker the deals, Reuters said, adding that he will be joined in the new group by former U.S. envoy Avi Berkowitz, and ambassadors to the United States from Bahrain, the UAE, and Israel, as well as, Israeli-American businessman Haim Saban, a contributor to Democratic causes.
The new group describes itself as non-partisan and "intend to add additional Democrats to the group as well as international advisers from the region", it said.
According to other media sources, the group aims to promote the relations between the five countries related to the Abraham accords in fields such as trade and tourism.
Morocco was the third Arab state to sign an agreement to normalize its ties with Israel last December under the meditation of the United States whom in return recognized the sovereignty of Morocco over Sahara.
