The Palestinian Ambassador accused the United States in a lie about the help from COVID 19

MOSCOW, 21 APR – RIA Novosti. The Ambassador of Palestine in France Salman of Charfi said RIA Novosti that the US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman lied about giving the United States the Palestinians, a special grant of $ 5 million to combat coronavirus.

on Thursday, Friedman wrote on Twitter that the United States give the Palestinian authority $ 5 million to combat the coronavirus, grant US to give hospitals and poor families.

He added that the United States has allocated $ 3.5 million non-governmental organizations that cooperate with Washington.

“the U.S. has not resumed its assistance to the world health organization, they can’t pretend that, said Friedman, they gave something to the Palestinians,” the Ambassador noted.

Palestine has refused contact with the U.S. after the promulgation of the President of Donald trump’s “deal of the century” settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, providing for the annexation by Israel of the Palestinian territories. Relationship of Ramallah and Washington had consistently worsened after the cessation of U.S. financial assistance to Palestinians and the transfer of the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
