Abbas aide: US peace plan that ignores Palestinian hopes doomed to fail
A senior Palestinian official says any American peace plan that ignores the Palestinian people's political aspirations for an independent state is doomed to fail.
"Any plan without a political horizon will not lead to peace," Nabil Abu Rudeineh says.
The comments by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' spokesman immediately cast a cloud over the conference, which is expected to take place in late June in the tiny Gulf Arab state of Bahrain.
