*WORLD'S* JERUSALEM WORRIES

UNITED KINGDOM : ''We disagree with the US decision to move its embassy to Jerusalem and recognise - Jerusalem as the Israeli capital before a final status agreement,'' a spokesman for British Prime Minister Theresa May said.

''The British embassy in Israel is based in Tel Aviv and we have no plans to move it.''

TURKEY : Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, during a visit to London, slammed what he called a -

''Very, very unfortunate '' move, saying that it had stripped Washington of its role as mediator in the Middle East peace process.

''With its latest step America has chose to be part of the problem, not a solution, and lost its mediator role in the Middle East peace process.''
Erdogan told the Chatham House  international affairs  think tank :

''This decision will increase tensions and ignite an even greater fire between communities.''

RUSSIA : Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov reiterated Moscow's objection to the move, saying :

''We firmly believe that it is inappropriate to unilaterally revise the decisions of the international community in this way.''

Lavrov, speaking in Moscow after meeting the Russian defence minister
and the pair's Egyptian counterparts, recalled that Russia '' has several times offered a platform for talks on the status of Jerusalem.
