Palestinians Are Not on US Radar, Biden's West Bank Trip Won't Bring Breakthrough, Says Analyst_我的网站

A |     US President Joe Biden is expected in the Palestinian Authority later this month, where he will meet a number of senior officials, including the PNA's president Mahmoud Abbas.,In recent months, officials in Ramallah have grown increasingly frustrated with the Biden administration, because of its inability to deliver promises made to the Palestinians during his pre-election campaign.,Broken Promises?,Palestinians had expected that Biden would open a consulate in East Jerusalem to compensate them for moving the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in 2018. That, however, didn't happen, something that served to strengthen the Palestinians' anger.,They also hoped he would renew the operation of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation's office in Washington that was shut down under Donald Trump. And they anticipated that the new boss in DC would unlock much-needed funds to the Palestinians after their budget was significantly trimmed in 2018.,"In his visit, Joe Biden is not going to deal with the most acute issues that have been bothering the Palestinians," says Hani Al Masri, a Ramallah-based political analyst. "They will not talk about freezing Israel's settlement activity. Nor will they focus on Israel's attacks on worshippers, or their arrests and assassinations. They will only speak about how to make sure Abbas survives and remains in his seat.",Abbas has become increasingly unpopular with the general public in the Palestinian territories. According to a recent poll, conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, more than 70 percent of Palestinians would like Abbas to resign, and 84 percent believed his government was corrupt.,But so far as Washington is concerned, says Al Masri, it is vital Abbas remains in position as he adheres to the security cooperation with Israel and is opposed to Hamas and this is why Washington would like to see him stay put, the analyst argues.,Shifting Interests,However, there's another reason Washington supports Abbas - America's domestic policy and its national interests.,"Right now, there are many other issues that occupy decision makers in Washington ahead of their mid-terms in November. One of them is Ukraine. Another one is their struggle to replace Russian energy. A third is the Iranian nuclear file. They have no room for any Israeli-Palestinian peace process," explains Al Masri.,Israel, for its part, doesn't seem interested in a peace process either. Although Prime Minister Yair Lapid, during his first official trip to France, said he would be willing to meet Abbas, such a meeting has not been scheduled. For the next three months, the Jewish state's interim PM will be busy with his pre-election campaign. A regulation of the conflict with the Palestinians will not be a priority for him.,US Embassy in Jerusalem Calls For Calm Following Clashes Between Israelis and Palestinians15 April, 14:47 GMT,Americans, Al Masri reckons, understand this and this is why they will not apply pressure to Israel preferring rather to retain the status quo. At the same time, those in Washington who want to present themselves as supporters of the Palestinians will ask officials in Jerusalem to make certain concessions.,Those are likely to include additional work permits to Gazans or removing some restrictions on worshippers, who pray at the Al Aqsa mosque in East Jerusalem. "Anything major is out of question," Al Masri declares.,"At present, what we can expect is only small and rather insignificant steps. Biden's trip will not bring a breakthrough. It is not in the interests of any side."。    장 국민의힘 대표, 취임 1주년 기자간담회"제대로 싸울 인재들로 당 채우겠다" 강조                    장동혁 국민의힘 대표가 26일 서울 여의도 국민의힘 당사에서 취임 1주년 기자회견을 하고 있다. 2026.8.26 /사진=뉴스1 [파이낸셜뉴스] 국민의힘 장동혁 대표가 26일 "시·도당 위원장, 당협위원장 선출 등에 당원이 직접 참여하도록 해 당원 주권을 더욱 확대해 나가겠다"고 밝혔다. 장 대표는 이날 여의도 중앙당사에서 연 취임 1주년 기자간담회에서 "제대로 싸울 인재들로 당을 채우겠다"며 이같이 말했다. "지난 1년, 저는 무엇보다 당원의 주권 강화에 힘을 쏟았다"고 말한 장 대표는 "당원 없는 정당은 존재할 수 없고 당원의 힘이 곧 정당의 힘이라고 믿기 때문"이라며 남은 1년의 임기 기간 동안 '새 출발'을 다짐했다. 특히 선출직 평가 제도에 대해 "보수의 시대적 가치에 맞게 개편하겠다"면서 "국회의원, 광역단체장, 기초단체장, 지방의회 의원들을 대상으로 새로운 평가제도를 구축하겠다"고 강조했다. '국민의힘 2.0, 4대 혁신 프로젝트'를 통해 당을 도약시키겠다는 방안도 내놨다. 모바일 당원증, 당원 제도 세분화 등으로 당원의 주인의식을 제고하고 당무감사 평가지표 개선, 당원 교육 체계화로 당의 조직관리 시스템도 업그레이드하겠다는 포부다. 여기에 당무 혁신을 위해 당헌당규를 개정하고, 당원주권 2.0 위원회를 출범시키겠다는 뜻도 밝혔다. 또 당 대표 직속의 '민생활력 PLA(현장점검 Patrol·입법 Legislation·사후관리 Aftercare) 위원회'를 만들어 경제, 외교, 안보, 청년, 미래 등 각 이슈를 아우르겠다고 말했다. 뿐만 아니라 '보수정체성확립위원회'를 설립하고 당의 강령과 기본정책 개편, 확대 당직자회의 정례화, 현장 중심 상설위원회 운영, 보수의 역사를 집대성한 온오프라인 기록관 설립 등도 추진하기로 했다. "지난 1년이 무너진 당을 일으키고 흩어진 보수를 결집하는 시간이었다면 지금부터는 본격적으로 승리의 교두보를 쌓는 시간"이라고 강조한 장 대표는 "결집된 당심을 토대로 '민심의 바다'로 나아가겠다. 중심 정당을 토대로 '민생정당'으로 한 단계 더 도약시키겠다"고 예고했다.。
