Kremlin criticizes Trump peace plan, doubts it’s viable
A Kremlin spokesperson is voicing criticism of the Trump administration’s proposal for Israeli-Palestinian peace.
“There is a whole number of respective resolutions of the UN Security Council,” Dmitry Peskov tells Russian media. “It’s obvious that certain points of this plan are not in full compliance with the UNSC resolutions.”
“We see the Palestinians’ reaction, we see the reaction of the whole number of Arab states, which show solidarity with the Palestinians in opposing this plan,” Peskov says. “This certainly raises doubts over its viability.”
