CAIRO, Feb 1 (NNN-MENA) – Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas and Arab League (AL) Secretary General, Ahmed Aboul-Gheit, discussed the developments on the Palestinian issue, especially the recent U.S. peace plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During their meeting in Cairo, Aboul-Gheit affirmed that “the Arabs represent a supportive backup to the Palestinians,” according to a statement by AL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting came days after U.S. President, Donald Trump, revealed the long-awaited political aspect of his controversial Middle East peace plan, calling for a two-state solution while recognising Jerusalem as Israel’s “undivided capital.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The U.S. president outlined the 80-page plan at the White House, along with visiting Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, saying, it proposes a “realistic” two-state solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Abbas completely rejected Trump’s peace plan, saying the plan “will not pass and will end in the dustbin of history.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Trump administration postponed several times the publication of its “Deal of the Century,” a proposal that has been criticised repeatedly by the Palestinians. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Palestinian president arrived in Cairo earlier, to participate in the emergency meeting of Arab foreign ministers to be held today (Saturday). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The timing of the plan and the way of proposing it raise doubts and require a firm response from the Arabs,” Aboul-Gheit told Abbas.– NNN-MENA <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
