Abbas: US suggested peace plan based on confederation with Jordan
None
Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas said on Sunday in a meeting with the left-wing Peace Now movement and Israeli Knesset members that a US negotiating delegation recommended a peace plan that was based on a confederation with Jordan.
According to the PA, he told President Donald Trump’s delegation that he would agree to such an arrangement on the provision that Israel would also be part of the confederation.
Abbas also claimed that he “consistently meets with the heads of the Shin Bet—we agree on 99 percent of the issues.”
