The validity of PLO's Phased Plan nowadays is unclear. PLO's Phased Plan was never officially canceled, but in general, the Palestinian leadership has stopped referring to it since the late 1980s. Recently, however, several statements made by PLO officials on the subject indicate that the Phased Plan has not been abandoned – most notably the statement of the PLO ambassador to Lebanon which stated in an interview that the "two-state solution will lead to the collapse of Israel".<ref>[http://www.memri.org/report/en/0/0/0/0/0/0/3297.htm Palestinian Ambassador to Lebanon Abbas Zaki: Two-State Solution Will Lead to the Collapse of Israel]</ref>

Nowadays there is a debate within the Israeli public and leadership on whether the PLO's Phased Plan still represent the thinking patterns and official policy of certain factions within the Palestinian leadership and of the Palestinian people and whether the Palestinian public and leadership still aim to ultimately take control over the entire region of [[Palestine (region)|Palestine]] or do Palestinian territorial claims apply only to the [[West Bank]] (including [[East Jerusalem]]) and the [[Gaza Strip]].<ref>http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3344810,00.html</ref><ref>[http://reut-institute.org/he/Publication.aspx?PublicationId=113 תוכנית השלבים - מכון ראות]</ref>
