US President Donald Trump is set to meet with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and possibly Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Isaac Herzog says according to Al Jazeera.

The comments, in an interview with Fox News, came in response to a question about President Donald Trump’s proposal to take over and redevelop the Gaza Strip. Herzog did not say when or where the meetings would take place.

“President Trump is due to meet with major, major Arab leaders, first and foremost the king of Jordan and the president of Egypt and I think also the crown prince of Saudi Arabia,” Herzog said.

“These are partners that must be listened to, they must be discussed with. We have to honour their feelings as well and see how we build a plan that is sustainable for the future.”
