Abbas to meet Putin in Russia following Ramadan

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas will meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Russia after Eid al-Fitr, a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, Palestine Liberation Organization Executive Committee member Azzam al-Ahmad tells Voice of Palestine, the official PA radio station.

Eid al-Fitr will take place at the beginning of June.

Jared Kushner, US President Donald Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, has said the White House will publicize a plan to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict after Ramadan.
