president trump and prime minister netanyahu pushing their international peace plan but they've both got troubles at home impeachment hearings against trump a continuing in the senate and on tuesday yes and you know he was formally charged with bribery and fraud but there was no mention of interest or scandals at the white house. under this vision jerusalem will remain israel's undivided very important undivided capital. but that's no big deal because i've already done that for you right. we've already done that but that's ok for too long far too long the very heart of the land of israel where our patriarchs prayed our prophets preached and our kings ruled has been outrageously branded as illegally occupied

territory well today mr president you are puncturing this big log. you are recognizing israel sovereignty over all the jewish communities in judea and samaria large and small alike. this is what donald trump says a future palestinian state could look like the map he tweeted chose palestinian areas in talk green but the west bank and gaza connected by a tunnel he said east jerusalem would be the capital of the state of palestine the palestinians have already made it clear this isn't a plan they're prepared to back or read on that if i would like to say to trump and that. wanted to you know the true solution is not for sale. well all our rights are not for sale. and not for bargaining your

conspiracy deals who are not. conan's if this new plan needs to move quickly israeli officials saying netanyahu plans to ask for cabinet approval on sunday to make the proposed new borders a reality. joining me from washington d.c. is doubly correspondent oliver salad i all over donald trump revealed his plan together with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu without the presence of palestinian representatives the palestinians are rejecting this deal so what trumps 2 state solution. well it's basically at the heart of his plan that so-called 2 state solution where the palestinians would get their own state as they say they have always called for jerusalem being the common capital as we just heard president trump speak but that will come at a very high price for the palestinian side so the israelis essentially would

maintain control of the contest at west bank settlements that are considered breach of humanitarian right by critics and it's pretty obvious that president trump was taking sides here in the run up to this proposal and he's not hiding that he was he tweeted today that it will always stand by the jewish people and the state of israel so essentially really is singling out here israel and it's also interesting if you take a closer look at how to how that plan came together that was the game negotiated without the palestinians so essentially you have a 2 state solution with only one side included in the negotiations and therefore the response of the palestinian side came very quickly the palestinian president mahmoud abbas fiercely rebuked the plan talking about a conspiracy deal and he also said that jerusalem is not for sale and trump impeachment trial continues and said what does he hope to get from this middle east

peace plan domestically all right so he's under a lot of pressure told me with the ongoing impeachment trial that is continuing today and in particular here with the latest revelations of his former national security advisor john bolton and it's interesting to follow the presidential and gender and recent days and weeks he's been doing a lot of events in speeches and travels. in an effort to impress his voter base he talked to anti-abortionists for instance just very recently that's a presidential 1st he also attended the world economic forum in switch. where he didn't go last year and now he unveiled that middle east peace plan which is also a very important point in the presidential agenda so one goal is pretty clear he's trying to distract from that impeachment trial but also let's not forget action here in the united states and we were just a week before the iowa caucuses of play
