President Trump arrived in Israel on Tuesday to kick-off the second leg of his first foreign trip as president with hopes to lay the groundwork to establish peace between Israelis and Palestinians. At the airport, Trump urged both sides to take advantage of the “rare opportunity” that he said currently exists under his administration to bring security, stability and peace to the region. “We have a rare opportunity to bring stability and peace in this region, defeat terror and create a future of peace,” Trump said after speeches from Israeli President Reuven Rivlin and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “Israel shares commitment to peace – already made with Egypt and Jordan,” he said. White House aides have tried to play down expectations for significant progress on the peace process during Trump's stop, casting it as more symbolic than substantive.
