Organisation of Islamic Cooperation rejects Trump peace plan
The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has said it rejects US President Donald Trump’s recently unveiled Middle east plan.
The 57-member body, which held a summit on Monday to discuss the plan in Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah, said in a statement that it “calls on all member states not to engage with this plan or to cooperate with the US administration in implementing it in any form”.
Requested by the Palestinian leadership, the meeting of the body came two days after the Arab league rejected Trump’s so-called “deal of the century”, saying : “It does not meet the minimum rights and aspirations of Palestinian people.”
