Palestinians Turn to Russia to Bypass U.S. Peace Plan
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh and Tovah Lazaroff - The Palestinians are urging Russia to play a greater role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as they embark on an international campaign to bypass the Trump administration's peace plan, which is scheduled to be released in the coming months, Palestinian officials said on Tuesday. PA President Mahmoud Abbas' spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeineh told Israeli journalists that any future peace deal should be concluded with the P5+1, such as was done with the Iran deal. This would include Russia, China, Great Britain, France, the U.S. and Germany. "We will never accept the Americans alone anymore," he said.
