Fatah’s leader rebukes Trump’s decision

Fatah’s leader Salwa Hadeeb described the latest decision taken by U.S President Donald Trump to move U.S embassy in Israel from Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem as a strong blow to the peace process, saying that the U.S distanced itself from any role to resolve the Palestinian issue.

He added that the American position represents a war against the Palestinian people and the Arabs as a whole, and the position of Trump and his administration is an aggression on freedom and justice and the Palestinian. He stressed that it will lead to tension in the region and a threat to international peace and security.

He added that the American administration has stepped out of the role of mediator in the peace process in the role of bias and adopting the extreme right-wing position.

He added that the main problem is that the status quo has been violated. This can lead to a braking and so sluggishly moving political process for the demarcation of the two peoples in the Middle East.

In addition, he continued, the diplomatic efforts undertaken by the mediating countries in the settlement of the Israeli-Muslim conflict can be stalled.

“ In my opinion, in this Trump made a very inexcusable tactical mistake. Therefore now it will be much more difficult for the United States to act as an intermediary and de facto help in reconciliation of the Israeli and Palestinian people," he said

He stressed that US President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel will lead to a halt in the settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
