President Trump to Speak With Palestinian President Abbas

RAMALLAH, West Bank — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will speak Friday by telephone with President Trump in the first contact between the two leaders since Trump took office in January.

Trump's planned phone call to Abbas was revealed in a White House notice.
