By naming Jerusalem the capital of Israel and announcing that the U.S. Embassy would be relocated from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, U.S. President Donald Trump has jeopardized Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations before they even begin. 

The international community does not recognize Israeli sovereignty over the entire city, believing its status should be resolved in negotiations. No other country has its embassy in Jerusalem.

Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem isolates the United States on one of the world’s most sensitive diplomatic issues. It has drawn a storm of criticism from Muslim and European leaders.

President Erdogan calls the Muslim States to meet in Istanbul on 13th of December under the umbrella of Islamic Summit. 

Considering the dependence of young prince Mohammed bin Salman due to ongoing poltical changes in Saudi Arabia, Egypt President Sisi's dependecen to US for continuity of his administration and President Erdogan's fragile situation with America underdiminish the possible strong condemenation to Trumph. Unless the political environment becomes independent than US support, Muslim States have no choice to enhance their dissatisfaction but to control the anger in coming days. 

It is likely to have a strong condemenation from Islamic Summit but member will not escalate the situation since each member leaders need the support of US administration for their survival. This would remain the biggest "Archilles Heel" amongst the Muslim World.
