PA denounces reported US plan to undercut refugee agency
The Palestinian Authority denounces reported US attempts to undercut a UN agency that serves several million Palestinian refugees and their descendants.
The US-based Foreign Policy magazine last week reported that Jared Kushner, Mideast adviser to US President Donald Trump, called in an email this year for a “sincere effort to disrupt” the agency.
Nabil Shaath, an adviser to PA President Mahmoud Abbas, alleges that the Trump administration is “pushing to impose facts on the ground, by realizing all of Israel’s demands.”
Abbas’ office said yesterday it would “foil conspiracies to end the Palestinian cause.”
