Palestine to cut U.S. communication if PLO office closed

The Palestine Liberation Organization said it will end communications with the United States if Donald Trump's administration closes its Washington D.C. office, a senior official said.

PLO Secretary General Saeb Erekat said the organization received a letter from the U.S. State Department stating it could not renew the office license due to Palestine's request for the International Criminal Court to open an investigation to prosecute Israel.

Erekat added if the State Department moves to officially close the office, the PLO will "button-hold all our communications" with the Trump administration.
