U.S. President Donald Trump told Jewish leaders yesterday that the U.S. would not give monetary aid to the Palestinians until they reach a peace agreement with Israel, the Times of Israel website reports today (September 7, 2018).
In a conference call with several dozen American Jewish leaders ahead of Rosh Hashanah, Trump noted that he had recently slashed immense amounts of U.S. aid to Palestinians.
The U.S. would resume funding, he said, but only if the Palestinians reached a peace deal with Israel.
Trump also expressed confidence that an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal would be achieved in the near future.
