French President Sent Adviser to Lobby Palestinians over U.S. Peace Plan
(Axios) French President Emanuel Macron sent his deputy national security adviser Aurelien Lechevallier for a secret visit in Ramallah last week to tell Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to give a chance to the U.S. peace plan which could be unveiled in the coming months. According to officials, Lechevallier told the Palestinians, "You might be right and the plan might turn out to be bad but don't blow it up right now. The plan might have things you don't like but maybe it will also contain interesting and positive things for you. It will be a shame if you throw the plan to the trash even before you received it. Read it first and then decide if you want to say no."
