Abbas aide says path to peace requires 2 states, after Trump declares support

Nabil Abu Rudeinah, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s spokesman says that “the path to peace” requires the two-state solution, including a Palestinian state along 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital, according to the official PA news site Wafa.

His remarks come shortly after US President Donald Trump announced his support for the two-state solution on the sidelines of the UN.

Abu Rudeinah adds that an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement requires “the resolution of all final status issues in accordance with international resolutions.”
