PLO on Trump's recent tweet on Palestine

Dr. Ashrawi on U.S. President Donald Trump's recent tweet on Palestine

In response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tweet on Palestine, PLO Executive Committee Member Dr. Hanan Ashrawi said:

"Palestinian rights are not for sale. By recognizing Occupied Jerusalem as Israel’s capital Donald Trump has not only violated international law, but he has also singlehandedly destroyed the very foundations of peace and condoned Israel’s illegal annexation of the city.

We will not be blackmailed. President Trump has sabotaged our search for peace, freedom and justice. Now he dares to blame the Palestinians for the consequences of his own irresponsible actions!"
