The plan doesn’t explicitly rule out a task for the Palestinian Authority (PA), which governs Palestinian communities within the West Financial institution; nor does it embrace a Palestinian state, leaving that difficulty for future bilateral talks. It’s intentionally imprecise on these factors.
Netanyahu’s purpose in leaving these contentious points undefined seems to be to fulfill the calls for of the Biden administration on the one hand, and his right-wing coalition companions on the opposite. However on a number of different points, Netanyahu is totally clear.
