According to a report by the Emirati news website al-Khaleejonline on Wednesday, Arab and Palestinian sources quoted American officials close to the Trump administration as saying that the so-called “deal of the century” will likely be released on May 15.

The sources, who were speaking on condition of anonymity, explained that Washington has taken all the necessary steps to present its plan and has also obtained financing from Arab and other countries to ensure its implementation.

All the Arab countries, as well as the Palestinian Authority, are now in the stage of waiting for the American deal to be unveiled, and its contents will change the political map of the whole region, especially with the leaks that have emerged in recent months, the report said.
