Trump’s direct approach may put an end to decades of hypocrisy on the subject of Israeli-Arab relations


Muslim leaders have condemned United States president Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

They are calling on the world to respond by recognising East Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital.

The leaders have met in Turkey for an emergency summit of the world's main pan-Islamic body, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, on Mr Trump's move last week.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he is not impressed by the Muslim leaders' statements.

Mr Netanyahu says the reality is Jerusalem is now the capital of Israel.
