Will PA wait for US elections to submit new UN resolution?
Palestinians are not convinced by the Palestinian Authority's justifications for delaying a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlement activity.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — The Palestinian Authority's postponement of its submittal of a draft resolution to the United Nations Security Council condemning Israeli settlement activities until after the US presidential elections has annoyed Palestinians.
Some believe that now is the best time to present such a draft resolution, which was supposed to be submitted at the end of September, in light of an international condemnation of Israeli settlement activity, which expanded by 40% during the first half of 2016 compared with the second half of 2015.
