President Mahmoud Abbas asked participants of the UN General Assembly in 2016 to make 2017 as the year to end Israeli colonialism towards Palestine. In 2017 Donald Trump was elected the US President who is considered by the Palestinians as the most pro Israel leader. It weakens  the dream of Palestine to get independence and build a sovereign country. (VOI/Rezha/Trs.AF/AHM)
