Uefa puts Israel vote on hold after Donald Trump’s proposed "peace" plan

Uefa has paused plans to ban Israel from European football after the announcement of Donald Trump’s proposed peace plan for the region.

Expectation had been growing of a decisive intervention by Uefa this week, amid growing pressure within football and from outside groups, including the United Nations. But Trump’s announcement of his plan in a joint press conference with Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Monday put any measures on hold.
