Amidst positions opposed to the American plan .. Palestinians refuse to "bribe" to accept the occupation

Palestinians described the economic aspect of the American peace plan as a bribe to accept the Israeli occupation. The Trump management project, which was unveiled prior to the Bahrain conference, was met with wide opposition in the region.

The US State Department said the $ 50 billion economic boom in the Palestinian territories, Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon is an extension of its fully biased political position and policies in re-producing the concepts, concepts and pillars of the ominous Balfour Declaration.

The Foreign Ministry said that this project does not talk about the economy of the Palestinian state and its components, but is trying to whitewash the occupation and settlement.

She pointed out that the team of US President Donald Trump is trying to restrict the Palestinian economy with the chains of occupation, depriving him of any chance of prosperity and development as an independent state economy. She said that the Trump administration is reproducing the Palestinian-Israeli conflict with new forms and does not seek to solve it in any way.

The PLO also rejected the US plan, which the adviser to US President and his son-in-law Jared Kouchner disclosed yesterday about the economic aspect, as theoretical promises.

The organization described the plan as a bribe to accept the Israeli occupation, stressing that the political solution is the only solution to the conflict.

Palestinian officials hastened to unveil the details of the American economic project to reject it, stressing the priority of freedom and sovereignty and ending the occupation and siege of Gaza.

At the same time, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas renewed a meeting of the Fatah Central Committee in Ramallah on Tuesday and Wednesday with the participation of several Arab countries, a position reiterated today in Cairo by Palestinian Finance Minister Shukri Bishara.

The Palestinian factions also condemned the American economic plan and the Bahrain conference. Hamas said it refuses to turn the Palestinian issue from a political issue to an economic one. It also refuses to be a gateway to normalization with the occupation.

Kouchner is due to present the economic aspect of the US plan at the Manama conference in which Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Jordan and Morocco will participate in a mixed representation, while the Palestinian Authority and Arab countries such as Lebanon and Iraq will not attend.

Stressing positions
On the level of reactions, Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri said today that the US plan, which includes the investment of six billion dollars in Lebanon, will not tempt his country, stressing that Lebanon does not accept barter on inalienable immunities, foremost of which is the refusal to settle the Palestinian refugees on its territory.

In the past, Hezbollah has described the US plan as a "historic crime" that must be stopped.

In Egypt, liberal and left-wing Egyptian parties sharply criticized the Bahrain conference, saying in a joint statement that the conference aims to perpetuate the Zionist occupation of the Arab territories and legitimize it.

In Jordan, deputy general supervisor of the Muslim Brotherhood Azzam al-Hinaidi, said the economic plan represents the sale of Palestine under the banner of prosperity for peace without returning land, adding that it is a deal with Arab funds.

In Tehran, parliament speaker Ali Larijani said on Sunday that the US plan for peace in the Middle East "tampering with the dignity of the nation" and will strengthen the Palestinian resistance against Israel.

"The deal of the century is a donation and a concession from one side only, the Arab side, while the occupier wins everything, land and peace and the Gulf money over all that, without any stop to settlement and the daily encroachment on the Palestinians and holy sites," said Osama al-Shaheen.

While Arab analysts, like Majid al-Ansari, a professor of political sociology at Qatar University, described the US plan as unrealistic and insulting to the Palestinian cause, figures supporting the positions of Saudi Arabia and the UAE considered the Palestinians wrong when they opposed the US plan and the Bahrain conference.

Among those adopting this view were Emirati businessmen Ahmad Al-Habtoor and the head of the Arab institution that supports Saudi policies, Ali Al-Shihabi.
