Majdalani: Trump´s administration is partner to Israel in the occupation of the Palestinian territories

A member of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), Ahmad Majdalani, on Thursday attacked the administration of US President Donald Trump and accused it of being a "partner" for the occupation of Palestinian territories.

Majdalani said in a press statement that the absence of the term "occupied Palestinian territories" from the annual report issued by the US State Department on the situation of human rights in the world "reflects an attempt to deny the status of occupation of the territories occupied in 1967 and include the West Bank, Jerusalem, And the American emphasis on partnership with the occupation. "

Majdalani said that "all the steps taken by the Trump administration make them partners to the occupation and discredit the credibility and credibility of them and their team for the political process, and thus loss of eligibility to take care of the peace process."

He added that the US State Department and its international reports "want to beautify the image of the occupation, but the whole world is aware of the horrors of this occupation and its crimes and organized state terrorism against the Palestinian people."

Majdalani stressed that the American report "is a loss of credibility, an enhancement of the Trump´s racism against the Palestinian cause."

A report published by the State Department on Wednesday on the situation of human rights in the world removed the reference to the Golan Heights as an occupied area, as appeared in previous reports, according to Israeli media.
