The OIC, established in 1969, consists of 57 member states with a Muslim majority or a large Muslim population. “With the roadmap we will create during the OIC meeting, we will show that the decision will not be easy to implement,” he said, adding that Turkey considers US President Trump’s Jerusalem announcement void. ‘TRUMP’S JERUSALEM DECISION COULD HELP MILITANTS’:Trump’s decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital could provide a lifeline to militants after the setbacks they suffered this year, the de facto leader of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has warned. Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahayan also said that the UAE hopes that Washington would reconsider its decision.
