Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas on Thursday accused Donald Trump's administration of undermining efforts towards a two-state solution, a day after the U.S. president said he would unveil a new Middle East peace plan.
"This administration has reneged on all previous U.S. commitments, and has undermined the two-state solution, and has revealed its false claims of concern about the humanitarian conditions of the Palestinian people," the Palestinian Authority president told the U.N. General Assembly.
Abbas also insisted that the Palestinians want entire East Jerusalem to be the capital of their future state and not merely a part of it such as the Abu Dis village which borders Jerusalem.
