President Trump unveiled his administration's Middle East peace plan alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, just hours after Netanyahu was indicted on corruption charges.
The two leaders touted the two-state plan as a "win-win" for Israel and Palestine.

The White House included a perplexing-looking map of the proposed solution, complete with a tunnel connecting Gaza and the West Bank.
