00:00I'm just wondering whether you anticipate President Donald Trump
00:04perhaps having a bit of a rethink, having spoken to other Arab regional leaders
00:09and not just the Israeli Prime Minister. Do you see that happening?
00:16Well, Trump is obviously something of a material figure
00:20so it's always difficult to predict exactly what he's going to do
00:23but as you said earlier, regional leaders including US allies, including the Saudi regime
00:28have been very explicit in their opposition to this plan.
00:32The question probably remains as to what we're going to see
00:36both Trump and the Arab leaders actually do in action
00:39either to make it happen or to stop it from happening.
