we saw president trump and muhammad abb mahmoud abbas.ness between the two this morning. what is the step going forward. how do we get this from the ceremony to actual substance? >> i think that administration has demonstrated to all parties involved that they know what they want. and i think that the parties are stepping up faster than most of us had assumed. i mean, you had sunnis and gulf partners suggesting unprecedented steps of normalization, vis-a-vis israel, provided israel delivers. you heard the israeli prime minister last night saying for the first time in his lifetime he sees a change worth exploring and his cabinet has already made an initial, somewhat stingy, decision to deliver for the president for that purpose. you hear palestinians talking about the need for them to get their act together. so, i think that all parties involved demonstrate that they take seriously the new sheriff that showed up in town and the sheriff himself, president trump, last night seemed to suggest that he has a more sober approach appreciation of

. >> of course. >> what does he tell mahmoud abbas? the israelis constantly complain that mahmoud abbas has not held elections in 12 or 13 years. the president signing a book here at the western wall under the watchful eye of the rabbi. the fact is, if mahmoud abbas holds elections he'll probably lose and some group like gaza, like hamas, will probably win as they did in gaza, which makes a peace deal less likely. >> of course. it is very important yesterday to hear that -- to listen to the president saying that hamas and hezbollah in the same line with isis and al qaeda, as great terrorist threats to humanity, that was very important. but what the president should say to palestinians, is not only the fact that this, but it's right. until that happens i'm afraid that most negotiations will be futile. they have to recognize israel's right to exist. that's the first thing to make a compromise. without compromise there is no chance to make peace. >> i want to bring you up to speed with what's going on with the president, by the way. you c

today he spoke next to mahmoud abbas. the palestinians -- pays suicide bombers for the rest of their lives for their attack in payment for suicide terrorism attacks against israeli civilians. any way to have peace, it is the message the president is giving the palestinians behind-the-scenes. you need to stop what you're doing supporting suicide bombers and join the rest of the civilized world in condemning it. heather: do you think this was an intentional move on the president's part to address these people? that was one of the critiques yesterday when he went to saudi arabia and talked to 50 muslim countries asking them to come together, some of these people are funding terrorism. >> he knows that and they know it. it was refreshing to have the president dressing them down in public for what we know and they know is a massive wrong. if they are going to stop and they need to know the president will punish those who step over the line. in afghanistan those people know that we would not tolerate their actions. he hit syria

it is just under consideration -- katty: just before mahmoud abbas' visit he reiterated -- martin: you have to parse the words. he said again that it was under serious can iteration, and will iteration,erious can in my estimation for another , four years. [laughter] martin: that is what "serious consideration" means. the settlement issue, notwithstanding what he said about the ambassador, trump's ambassador to israel, who is a strong supporter of settlement activity, the president himself in front of prime minister netanyahu when he came to town said he expected there to be settlement restraint, and in fact, there has been settlement restraint since at least -- at least the announcement of settlements -- since that visit. he is doing things that indicate to me a seriousness about his desire to do it. katty: ok, thanks very much. tim: that was martin indyk, former special envoy for israeli-palestinian negotiations. speaking to the bbc's "100 days plus" program. you are watching bbc "world news america." theresa may has accused politicians in brussels of not wanting brexit to succeed or

the issue is likely to come up. >> reporter: yes, ayman, just one more unwelcome headache for mahmoud abbass this is taking place at all, not because donald trump is president but because abbas still is. he's under tremendous pressure, he's in office but not really in power. he's aging, 82. under huge pressure for not having delivered for palestinians, hasn't faced an election since 2005, 12 years in power. he's facing the most pro israeli president in decades in donald trump, a man who very warmly met benjamin netanyahu in february. for mahmoud abbas he's getting his meeting, his face time. he's not likely to persuade donald trump of anything. remember he said he wasn't even committed to a two-state solution after meeting netanyahu. i think expectations for these meetings are often very low. i think dennis ross, a former u.s. point man in the middle east has said expectations for any kind of ground deal or ground bargain as a result of this meeting are probably at their lowest for decades, ayman. >> given the notion that president trump hasn't taken a position whether a two-state solution

a lot of optimism both from president mahmoud abbas and president mahmoud abbas and president trump.. if the will of president trump was enough to resolve this problem then there would be reason for optimism. but we've learned from bitter experience that the will of the united states president alone cannot do it. it is the parties themselves that must make difficult compromises and abbas and prime minister netanyahu both faced domestic political difficulties that constrain them from making a deal. is there a chance that it would take a president like president trump who's seen as president like president trump who's seen as having close relations with israel to be able to build up abbas in this way and perhaps make a breakthrough? i think building up is what we saw here, in that clip. abbas did not endorse a two state solution. but nevertheless he did treat abbas as an equal. as a leader. he is under siege from hamas, under siege from both egyptian, jordanian, leaders who do not think he should represent the palestinians and here is a drug is presenting him as the leader who is going
