Ramallah, Palestine, MINA – The Palestinian government has denounced Israeli calls for world countries to relocate their embassies from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, Anadolu Agency reported.

In a statement on Saturday, the government said Israel was engaged in talks to persuade world countries to move their diplomatic missions to Jerusalem.

These Israeli attempts are “in violation of international law”, the government said, going on to call on world countries to respect UN resolutions on the holy city.

On Dec. 6, U.S. President Donald Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, triggering world outcry and protests across the Palestinian territories.
