Palestinian Authority slams ‘unjustified’ US denial of visa for Abbas to attend UN

The Palestinian Authority slams a decision by the United States to refuse to grant visas for its officials to attend the UN General Assembly in New York next week, a move that includes President Mahmoud Abbas.

In a statement, the Palestinian Authority foreign ministry calls it “an unjustified measure that runs counter to efforts to rebuild trust, develop Palestinian-US relations, and create the necessary political climate for implementing the two-state solution and achieving peace and stability.”
