Jared Kushner, White House senior adviser and son-in-law to President Donald Trump, slammed an upcoming press conference by former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas as “almost pathetic.”

While speaking to reporters outside the United Nations on Thursday, Kushner was responding to reports that the pair are planning to condemn the Trump administration’s controversial proposal for Middle East peace, which has been seen as overwhelmingly one-sided in Israel’s favor.

“It is almost pathetic that they are criticizing other people’s efforts to try and reach an agreement,” Kushner said after briefing the UN Security Council on details the peace plan. “It comes from a lot of jealousy that they couldn’t do it themselves.”

“If you really want to make peace,” Kushner continued, “then you need to encourage the efforts of other people to try and make peace instead of trying to make headlines when you are not relevant and intervening in the situation to get attention.”
