United Nations, Nov 27 (AP) Israel's UN ambassador says the Trump administration has told the Israeli government that it expects to release its long-awaited Israeli-Palestinian peace plan in the beginning of 2019.

Danny Danon told a group of UN reporters Tuesday that there is "a window of opportunity" for the US to present the plan without interfering in Israeli elections likely scheduled for May or June.

Otherwise, he said, it will have to wait until next fall.

Danon said Israel knows the US plan is complete but doesn't know the details.

"We are open-minded," he said. "We will look at it. We will negotiate." But Danon said the Palestinians won't consider the plan. They accuse US President Donald Trump of being biased toward Israel. AP KUN
