Abbas asks UN for protective force against Israel prior to chairing G77

(Worthy News) – The United Nations must provide the Palestinians with an international protection force, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said in New York on Monday, a day before taking over the chairmanship of the Group of 77, the largest bloc of United Nation member states.

Abbas held talks with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday and briefed him on the latest developments surrounding the Palestinian issue and “dangerous Israeli violations” against Palestinians, especially in Jerusalem, the PA’s official Wafa news agency reported.

During the meeting, Abbas stressed the need to implement the UN General Assembly and Security Council’s resolutions, “particularly the secretary-general’s report regarding providing international protection for the Palestinians, as well as his reports concerning the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2334, specifically with regards to the illegal Israeli practices and the settlements.” [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
