The economic aspect of the U.S. Middle East peace plan will be revealed on June 25 and 26 at an international conference in Bahrain, the White House announced on Sunday, The Jerusalem Post reported.

Representatives from the European Union, Asia, the Arab world, and Palestinian businessmen will attend a "Peace to Prosperity" economic workshop in the capital Manama, according to a senior administration official, who stressed it will focus on building a prosperous future for the Palestinian people.

It remained unclear when the political aspect of the peace plan would be revealed, with an official telling the Post, "we will release it when we think it's appropriate."

Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner, who has spent years developing the proposal along with White House Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt, told CNN that "people are letting their grandfathers' conflict destroy their children's futures. This will present an exciting, realistic and viable pathway forward that does not currently exist."

Kushner is said to have modeled the economic proposal on what has worked in Poland, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea, and will reportedly concentrate on four major components: infrastructure, industry, empowering and investing in people, and governance reforms.

However, the workshop will try to avoid the many political issues that have derailed other peace plans.
