The resignation of President Donald Trump’s special envoy for the Middle East Jason Greenblatt highlights the failure of the US team working on the peace process and conflict resolution, member of Hamas International Relations Office Dr. Basem Naim said.

In a press release, Naim said that the resignation of the US envoy to the Middle East is ‘good news’ and a sign of the ‘failure’ of the US team that works on peacemaking and conflict resolution between the Palestinian people and the Israeli occupation.

“It highlights the failure of the so-called the ‘Deal of the Century’ that was born dead,” the Hamas official added.

Addressing the US administration, Naim hoped that Greenblatt’s resignation would push the Trump administration to review the US vision and policy towards the conflict resolution in the region.

The Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East announced Thursday that he will leave office once the US peace plan is released.
