Presidency rejects any US steps in violation of international law

 

BETHLEHEM, Thursday, January 23, 2020 (WAFA) – Nabil Abu Rudeinah, spokesman for President Mahmoud Abbas, said on Thursday evening that the leadership will reject any steps by the United States that would breach international law, amid reports of an impending announcement by the US administration on implementing the “deal of the century”.

“If this deal is announced according to these rejected formulas, the leadership will announce a series of measures in which we safeguard our legitimate rights, and we will demand Israel to assume its full responsibilities as an occupying power,” he said.

Abu Rudeinah reiterated the call for ending the Israeli occupation of the State of Palestine occupied since 1967 and establishing an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

He concluded, “We warn Israel and the American administration against crossing the red lines.”
