RAMALLAH, West Bank — Twenty-four years into the signing of the Oslo Accords, the Palestinians are still betting that the United States will sponsor the peace process between Israel and Palestine. This was evidenced by President Mahmoud Abbas’ speech at the UN General Assembly meeting on Sept. 20.
“We will grant every chance for the efforts being undertaken by President Donald Trump and the Quartet and international community as a whole to achieve an historic agreement that brings the two-state solution to reality," Abbas said in his UN address.
