What does it mean that the peace plan has been negotiated by Israel and the United States without the Palestinians?
- This is not a peace plan, but only propaganda for internal use. For Trump and Netanyahu. They make it appear as the biggest deal of the century, but they have not understood the problem and that it is not possible to buy the Palestinians. Not even $ 100 billion would be enough.
How will the Palestinians and President Abbas react?
- They will undoubtedly reject it. Abbas has already rejected Jared Kushner's plan. The only new thing now is that the Palestinians continue to have access to the mosque on Temple Mount, but that is not enough. As they put forward the peace plan, the Palestinians will probably not even come to the negotiating table. I do not see any opportunities for this to succeed.
It was said that Israel would make concessions. Did it appear which ones?
- It sounded like what Israel has now occupied should belong to Israel, but the rest that remains will be the Palestinians. But it is not possible to form a state of what is left with small incoherent patches here and there.
The US is now giving Trump support to all of Israel's settlements. What does it mean?
- It will remain that the occupation is illegal. It can't be changed after 70 years.
