"Any peaceful solution should depend basically on ending the occupation and gaining the national rights of the Palestinians," said Ishtaye.
"The economic factor is an outcome of the political settlement because the Palestinians and their leadership do not seek enhancing living conditions under occupation," the Palestinian prime minister noted.
According to Secretary General of the Palestine Liberation Organization Saeb Erekat, the Palestinians had never been consulted on the U.S.-led economic workshop before its announcement.
Meanwhile, Hamas, a Palestinian Islamist organization that rules the Gaza Strip, also called on the Palestinians to boycott the U.S.-sponsored workshop in Bahrain.
"Our people are unified to boycott the workshop in Manama and act against the Deal of the Century and the projects of liquidizing the Palestinian cause," Khalil al-Hayya, deputy chief of Hamas, told reporters on May 24.
On May 27, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas went further by slamming the Deal of the Century as "selling illusions."
"They are selling us illusions that won't take us anywhere, and we are not in need of their aid because our people are able to build their state," Abbas told a ceremony held at his office in Ramallah.
The Palestinian Authority severed all political contacts with the Trump administration after he recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in 2017.
Since then, the Palestinians have been appealing for an international multilateral mechanism to help solve their conflict with the Israelis, not trusting the United States in the role as an honest mediator for peace.
