Abbas adviser: Warsaw conference aims to normalize 'occupation'

A senior adviser to Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas said on Thursday that the Warsaw conference jointly organized by US President Donald Trump's administration lacks credibility as it aims to "normalize the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory”.

"By fully siding with the Israeli government, (the Americans) have tried to normalize the Israeli occupation and the systematic denial of the Palestinian right to self-determination," said Nabil Shaath, according to, AFP.
