Washington, D.C.(The COW News Digital) Jared Kushner, son-in-law of former U.S. President Donald Trump, has revealed that President Trump attempted to support both the return of hostages and the people of Gaza during his tenure. Kushner made the remarks while addressing the inaugural session of the Peace Council in Washington, emphasizing a dual focus on security and humanitarian assistance.
Kushner described the conflict as “tragic in every sense” and highlighted efforts made in collaboration with Gaza’s management committee, led by Chairman Ali Shath. He stated that these partnerships enabled the U.S. to provide comprehensive support to residents of Gaza, aiming to alleviate suffering and expand opportunities for stability and development.
“We view this as a cooperative effort with both the people of Gaza and Israel,” Kushner said, “to foster an environment of peace and stability that gives citizens the chance for a dignified life.” He stressed the importance of creating sustainable solutions that benefit all parties involved.

During his speech, Kushner also acknowledged the countries that joined the Peace Council from the start, praising them for voluntarily committing their credibility, resources, and time to help shape a better future. “These nations have chosen to believe that the future can be different and are willing to contribute toward solving the challenges we face,” he remarked.
Kushner further emphasized that previous successes in participating countries serve as a model for global cooperation. He urged continued commitment, stating that failure is not an option. “We must advance with determination, identifying pathways to success,” he said, underlining the necessity of effective implementation over mere intent.
While discussing resources, Kushner noted that financial or material limitations were not the primary obstacle. Instead, he highlighted the importance of coordinated action and follow-through. “What we truly need is proper execution and commitment to achieving tangible results,” he added.
The remarks come amid ongoing debates over U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and highlight the Trump administration’s attempts to balance diplomatic initiatives with humanitarian concerns. Observers note that the approach reflects a combination of direct negotiation, strategic partnerships, and humanitarian support aimed at stabilizing conflict zones.
Kushner’s address reinforces the message that collaborative efforts, accountability, and strong implementation are key to ensuring lasting peace in regions affected by conflict, and that global participation remains crucial to success.
