Abbas at UN Security Council: Peace is still possible, but not via Trump plan

PA President Abbas says that he believes peace is still possible, but that it will not come via the Trump peace plan.

“I have come before you today to say that peace between Israelis and Palestinians is still possible. It’s achievable. I have come to build an international partnership toward peace,” he says.

“But we must reject this unjust plan,” he insists.

He says it was drawn up by one country (the US), on behalf of another country (Israel), in an attempt to impose terms on the Palestinians in breach of international law and UN resolutions.
