The Palestinian
Authority has cut all ties with the United States
and Israel, including those relating to security,
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said on
Saturday.
Abbas was in Cairo to address the
Arab League, which backed the Palestinians in their
opposition to Trump’s plan.
The blueprint, endorsed by Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu, calls for the creation of a
demilitarised Palestinian state that excludes Jewish
settlements built in occupied territory and is under
near-total Israeli security control.
“We’ve informed the Israeli side ... that there will
be no relations at all with them and the United
States including security ties,” Abbas told the
one-day emergency meeting, called to discuss Trump’s
plan.
Israel and the Palestinian Authority’s security
forces have long cooperated in policing areas of the
occupied West Bank that are under Palestinian
control. The PA also has intelligence cooperation
agreements with the CIA, which continued even after
the Palestinians began boycotting the Trump
administration’s peace efforts in 2017.
