Obama Calls Abbas, Pledges Palestinian State

In a phone call to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas Tuesday, US president-elect Barack Obama has promised his administration would continue efforts to advance the two-state solution, which includes the formation of a Palestinian State.

As previously reported, Obama will pursue an ambitious Middle East peace plan that involves Arab countries recognizing Israel in exchange for the Jewish state to move back to its pre-1967 borders.

Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat, who broke the news to reporters, said “Obama promised that he won’t stop his efforts to push the peace process forward in order to reach a two-state solution [....] He said he will work with both sides to achieve peace, which is an interest to all the parties.”
