Kremlin says it hopes for Palestinian leader’s visit to Russia

The Kremlin hopes that the Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas will visit Russia at a time convenient for both sides, Russia’s RIA state news agency reports, citing Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

“Abbas has an open invitation. We hope that the visit will take place at a time convenient for both sides,” Peskov says.

RIA says that Abbas had planned to come to Russia in November of last year, but the visit was postponed at the request of the Palestinian side.
