Egypt, Jordan, Morocco to attend US-led Palestinian conference: officials 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy ReutersEgypt, Jordan, and Morocco have informed the Trump administration they will attend a US-led conference in Bahrain this month on proposals for boosting the Palestinian economy as part of a coming US peace plan, US officials said on Tuesday. However, Palestinian leaders’ decision to boycott the June 25-26 conference in Manama has raised doubts about its chances for success. Acceptance of the invitation to the conference by Jordan and Egypt will bring to the table two countries that border both Israel and Palestinian areas. Most experts are skeptical the Trump administration can succeed where decades of US-backed efforts have failed.
