US to Start Rejecting Palestinians’ Right to Return
- PressTV Published on Aug 25, 2018
The US government is reportedly planning to announce that it will NOT recognize the right of return to the occupied territories for millions of Palestinian refugees. .Israeli media reports say the US will in a few days say that about one million Palestinians should qualify for refugee status. This would contradict UN figures that classify more than five million Palestinians as refugees. The administration of US President Donald Trump has repeatedly opposed treating the descendants of Palestinian refugees as refugees themselves. Palestinian Authority officials have recently warned that Trump seeks to end the refugee issue. US officials are yet to comment on the matter.
