The U.S. move is expected to cause an open conflict between Palestinians and Israelis which may fuel tension in the region, the Palestinian analyst warned.
The status of Jerusalem is among the thorniest issues of Palestinian-Israeli peace talks, which broke down in 2017 after nine months of U.S.-sponsored negotiations achieved no breakthrough.
The transfer of the U.S. embassy coincides with Israel's 70th anniversary of its declaration of independence, a day before the Palestinian Nakba Day, or "Day of Catastrophe," when most of the Palestinians were forced out of their cities and towns.
Trump is now preparing to present a peace plan, known as "deal of the century," to end the long-running Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
The plan, however, was long rejected by the Palestinian leadership, which seeks to create a new multilateral framework in place of the U.S. monopoly over peace negotiations.
Hamada Faraana, a Ramallah-based news analyst, said Washington's policies in the Middle East have proved a failure in resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
"Under Trump, Washington is working in coordination with Israel to pass the deal of century in harmony with Israeli interests. This is rejected by the Palestinians and will definitely face a strong reaction from the Palestinians at all levels," he told Xinhua.
Palestinian rejection is being backed by the United Nations, the European Union and Russia, Faraana pointed out.
