U.S. President Donald Trump told Palestinian and Jordanian leaders on Tuesday that he intends to move the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. A Palestinian spokesman said Trump called Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and informed him of his plan. Abbas then warned Trump of what he called the dangerous consequences such a decision would have to the peace process and to the peace, security and stability of the region and of the world. Trump also spoke with Jordan’s King Abdullah II about his plan. Trump has not said when the move would happen. U.S. officials told the Associated Press that they expect Trump to discuss the question of Jerusalem on Wednesday. The officials also said they expect him to make a statement about Jerusalem’s status as the capital of Israel. However, they do not expect the president to use the term “undivided capital.” Those words indirectly express that Israel has sovereignty over east Jerusalem.
