PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas spoke on Saturday at the Arab League Conference in Cairo, stressing that "Our message to Netanyahu is: 'There will never be any contact with you and the United States, including security ties, because of your abdication of signed and legitimized decisions, and you must bear responsibility as a force conqueror. The century deal is rejected, but we still believe in peace. "
Abu Mazen also said that despite meetings with President Trump, nothing was achieved. He said he told Trump he believed in disarmament, but after a few months, the Palestinian Authority's office in Washington was closed, and he also declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel.
Mahmoud Abbas claimed that the US intelligence supported the vision of the Solution Authority, as did senior security officials in their dealings with them. He also said he refused to accept the plan and get any message from the US president because the administration was interested in saying he consulted him.
"Americans want Palestine's capital to be Abu Dis, some small village in Jerusalem. The West Bank and Gaza make up 22 percent of historic Palestine and we want it, and now want to take 32 percent of these territories," Abu Mazen said.
PA chairman said he knows nothing about the plan and who is really in charge of it are US ambassador to Israel David Friedman, adviser Jared Kushner and envoy Jason Greenblatt.
"When they said that al-Quds was the capital of Israel, I rejected the plan and I am not prepared for history to record me as having received it.
"We are not worthless," stressed Abu Mazen. "We want to seek a solution and therefore we have sought a peace conference led by the International Quartet. We will never accept America alone as a mediator because we tried it. The Americans want me to accept the annexation of Jerusalem and divide al-Aqsa, and abolish the right She returned and overpowered Gaza. "
