Palestinian PM Submits 'Counter-Proposal' to Trump Plan
Palestinians have submitted a response to the US Mideast plan which sees parts of the West Bank being annexed by Israel, Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh said Tuesday.
"We submitted a counter-proposal to the Quartet a few days ago," he said, referring to the United States, Russia, the United Nations and the European Union.
He said that it proposed the creation of a "sovereign Palestinian state, independent and demilitarized" with "minor modifications of borders where necessary."
