Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital has sparked Arab anger and raised global questions about the fate of peace negotiations.
While the White House confirmed that Trump's decision was not a departure from the peace negotiations, international politicians and experts believe that Trump, in his latest decision, has blown up all efforts to reach peace between Palestinians and Israelis.
European officials called for a solution to Jerusalem through negotiations as a future capital for two states in the context of the two-state peace process.
How will Trump's decision affect peace negotiations?

I do not understand what Trump's goal really is, did he not previously think carefully that his decision could hurt the feelings of the Palestinians and Muslims around the world?
Jerusalem is part of the history of Islam in the world and Jerusalem is part of the Palestinian territory rather than Israel.
Trump's statement could trigger unrest in Palestine or even the battle between Palestine and Israel after so long they were hostile,it would be difficult to achieve peace between them and of course other Islamic countries would not remain silent when Jerusalem was recognized as Israel.
