MOSCOW: Russia?s President Vladimir Putin and Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday said they both supported creating a Palestinian state, the Kremlin said the day after the UN rejected the decision by Washington to recognise Jerusalem as Israel?s capital.
In a phonecall, the two leaders ?discussed the situation of Middle East peace talks in the context of the resolution adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on the status of Jerusalem,? the Kremlin said in a statement.
They ?confirmed the mutual disposition to continue to assist in resolving the Palestine-Israeli conflict on the basis of international norms and realisation of the right of the Palestinian people to create an independent state,? it said.
A second Palestinian was killed Friday in clashes with Israeli troops along the Gaza border, the Palestinian health ministry said, in new protests against US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel?s capital.
?A second man, whose identity is still unknown, died in clashes east of Gaza City,? the coastal enclave?s health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said, noting the man was shot in the chest.
A 24-year-old was killed in similar clashes in northern Gaza earlier Friday.Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said Friday that he would ?no longer accept? any peace plan proposed by the United States, dealing a pre-emptive blow to a fresh initiative expected by Washington next year.
?The United States has proven to be a dishonest mediator in the peace process and we will no longer accept any plan from it,? Abbas told a joint press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron.
Macron repeated his earlier condemnations of the US decision on Jerusalem, but he also ruled out recognising Palestine as a state unilaterally, which France has mooted previously. ?The Americans have marginalised themselves and I am trying to not do the same thing,? Macron said.Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak vowed on Friday to use every means to protest against US President Donald Trump?s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel?s capital, a tough stand likely to win him support among Muslim voters.
