The European Union on Saturday expressed regret over the decision by the United States to again deny visas to the Palestinian delegation ahead of the UN General Assembly in New York. The EU also called on Washington to reconsider its decision. aktuality.sk ↗
The visa denial concerns Palestinian representatives who wish to attend the General Assembly session. According to available information, this is a decision by the United States for the second year in a row. svet.sme.sk ↗
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will therefore not be able to address the General Assembly in person. He is expected to address the participants of the session via video link. This form of address is meant to replace his direct participation at the United Nations headquarters in New York. teraz.sk ↗
The European Union stated that it wants to see the Palestinian delegation at the UN negotiations. According to the EU, the visa denial restricts the participation of Palestinian representatives in an international forum where issues concerning the Middle East and the Palestinian question are discussed.
The EU's appeal is directed at the United States ahead of the start of the General Assembly session. Further developments will depend on whether Washington changes its decision or allows the Palestinian delegation some other form of participation.
