U.S. plans to reopen a consulate offering diplomatic services to Palestinians in Jerusalem have been met with outrage from the Israeli government, and one lawmaker has proposed a law blocking the move.

Plans to re-open an American consulate in Jerusalem serving Palestinians have prompted pushback from the Israeli government.

The administration of U.S. President Joe Biden says it wants to reopen the consulate to repair relations with the Palestinians, after it was closed by then-President Donald Trump.

But right-wing Israeli lawmaker Nir Barkat has proposed a bill that would outlaw the planned reopening, which he said would undermine Israel's claim to Jerusalem.
