Prosor: Arab states neglect PA
None
Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations Ron Prosor accused the Arab States of neglecting the Palestinian Authority, and claimed that only the United State, Britain and France supported the Authority despite being immersed in a financial crisis.
"Arab donors provided just 20% of the international funds for the Palestinian Authority’s regular budget last year. Let me put this in perspective: last year, Arab donations to the regular PA budget accounted for a little more than half of what Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin-Talal spent on his newest personal luxury jet," he said during a speech at the Security Council.
