Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Arab League ministerial committee is drafting a plan to thwart Israel’s bid to become a member of the UN Security Council in the 2019-2020 term.
“The plan of action that was prepared by the committee during its previous meeting was circulated to Member States,” says Saeed Abu Ali, the assistant secretary general for Palestine and occupied Arab lands, according to Wafa, the PA’s official news outlet.
The report says the “coordinated Arab action in this regard is to prevent the Israeli occupying state from becoming a member of the Council.”
Wafa adds that the committee has also approved a plan of action aimed at confronting “Israel’s schemes in Africa.”
