WASHINGTON – Rep. Doug Lamborn
(R-Colo.) told PJM that “nothing,” including President Trump’s decision
to delay moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, is going to
make the Palestinians “be more conciliatory” toward Israel.
Trump, who pledged to move the embassy during the presidential campaign, decided
not to order its relocation at this time.
"President
Trump made this decision to maximize the chances of successfully
negotiating a deal between Israel and the Palestinians, fulfilling his
solemn obligation to defend America's national security interests,"
White House press secretary Sean Spicer said in a statement.
Lamborn said the embassy should not be “linked” to the peace negotiations between the Palestinian Authority and Israel.
