PA foreign minister slams Guatemala over Jerusalem embassy move

PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Malki slams the decision by Guatemala’s president to move his country’s embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

“It is a step that reflects President [Jimmy] Morales’ insistence on dragging his country to the wrong side of history, in a blatant violation of international law, Security Council resolutions and General Assembly resolutions, including the most recent resolution [condemning the US move],” says Malki, in statements carried by the PA’s official news site Wafa.
