Palestinian envoy rejects Trump threat to cut foreign aid

“We will not be threatened,” says Palestinian Ambassador to the UN Riyad Mansour of Trump’s threat to cut foreign aid to countries that support to motion.

He says that countries that have criticized the decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital “are working for sake of humanity and peace.”

“History records names, the names of those who stand by what is right and stand up to peace,” he says in a pointed remark at Trump, who’s own UN ambassador Nikki Haley said she would be “recording names” of dissenters.
