Palestine has criticized United States for deleting the name of Palestine from its list of countries and states.

The spokesman of the Palestinian presidency, Nabil Abu Rudeineh said in an official press statement that the decision represents unprecedented deterioration in the American foreign policy.

Rudeineh said the step again shows the U.S. government is not only biased toward the Israeli occupation but is fully aligned with the plans of the extremist Israeli right-wing.
