Palestinian leader Abbas urges 'firm' US response to Israel plan for West Bank

Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas called Wednesday for a "firm response" from the United States and the international community to Israel's plan to tighten its control of the occupied West Bank.

During a visit to Oslo, Abbas said he had discussed the issue with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store, as well as those of Israeli settler violence and Israel's freezing of "$4 billion" intended for the Palestinian people.

"These serious violations require a firm response from the U.S. administration and the international community because they hinder (U.S.) President (Donald) Trump's efforts constitute a violation of international law," Abbas told reporters.
