Abbas to UN: Recognize 2 states, not just one

The PA president says the entire world should recognize the state of Palestine, singling out those nations he says “have harmed the rights of our people to rectify this injustice.”

He calls the state of Palestine “a state under occupation,” and says the PLO Executive Committee is “the sole, legitimate representative of the Palestinian people wherever they may be.”

“Those who believe in the two-state solution should recognize both states, and not just one of them,” he says.
