UN chief invites Palestinian president to join meeting over Palestinian cause

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres invited on Wednesday Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to join a meeting to discuss the Palestinian cause.

The official Palestinian News Agency WAFA reported on Wednesday that the International Quartet, which comprises the United States, the UN, the European Union, and Russia will convene soon without setting a specific date for the meeting.

The report said that Guterres invited Abbas to join the meeting to prepare for a successful international ministerial meeting that will deeply discuss the situation the Palestinian cause is passing through.

“Guterres reiterated to President Abbas during a telephone conversation on Wednesday that the UN position towards the Palestinian cause is constant and based on international law and international resolutions,” said the report.

According to the report, Abbas briefed Guterres on the Palestinian leadership’s decision to end all the agreements reached with Israel and the United States in response to Israel’s plan of annexing parts of the West Bank. Meanwhile, Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Ishtaye announced on Wednesday that his government will turn the Palestinian leadership’s decision into deeds and facts.

Ishtaye’s remarks were made in a press statement that was issued after an emergency meeting for the Palestinian government held in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
