Fatah leader: Contacts underway to resume peace process

Several parties are trying to resume contacts between the Palestinian Authority and Israel and the US administration, Mahmoud Aloul, deputy chairman of the Palestinian ruling Fatah faction, said on Wednesday.

Aloul did not name the parties that are reportedly seeking to resume contacts between the Palestinians and the Israelis and Americans. “There are many parties that are in touch with us and the Americans and Israelis in order to find solutions,” he said without elaborating.

Peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians have been stalled since 2014.

The PA leadership has been boycotting the US administration since December 2017, when US President Donald Trump announced his decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
