Palestinian President rejects Trump’s Mideast peace plan

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has rejected a Mideast peace plan announced by President Donald Trump, which strongly favors Israel.

Abbas said at a press conference in the West Bank city of Ramallah, where the Western-backed Palestinian Authority is headquartered that after the nonsense they heard Palestinians say thousand no’s to the Deal of The Century.

He said the Palestinians remain committed to ending the Israeli occupation and establishing a state with its capital in east Jerusalem.

“We will not kneel and surrender adding that Palestinians would resist the plan through “peaceful, popular means,”says Abbas

The plan would create a Palestinian state in parts of the West Bank, but would allow Israel to annex nearly all of its settlements in the occupied territory.
