PLO official: UN bid focuses on Palestinian rights, not US relations
None
Yasser Abd Rabbo, secretary-general of the PLO's Executive Committee commented on Washington's announcement that it would veto the PA's UN bid, saying that the Palestinian campaign focuses on the Palestinian people's rights, and not the PA's relations with the United States.
Abd Rabbo added that the bid and the resumption of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process were not mutually exclusive, but complementary. (Elior Levy)
