How the Middle East Is Reacting to Donald Trump's Israeli-Palestinian Peace Plan

Both Netanyahu and his upcoming elections rival Benny Gantz endorsed the proposal, but it was received less warmly in the Middle East.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas roundly rejected the Trump administration's strategy even before it was released. Following Trump's reveal on Tuesday, Abbas held a press conference at which he responded to the plan "with a thousand no's," especially to the U.S. proposal for an "undivided" Israeli capital in Jerusalem and a separate Palestinian capital somewhere on the eastern outskirts of the holy city.
