Organization of Islamic Cooperation expresses regret for the US administration's decision not to grant the official delegation of the State of Palestine visas to attend the United Nations General Assembly meetings

SadaNews - The Organization of Islamic Cooperation expressed its deep regret over the decision of the US State Department not to grant the Palestinian delegation visas to participate in the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York next month.

The organization calls on the Government of the United States to reconsider this discriminatory decision, which contradicts international law and the headquarters agreement it signed, and to fulfill its obligations under this agreement, while respecting the role of the United Nations as an umbrella for all countries and their official representatives. The organization also urges all parties of the international community, especially the United Nations, to take immediate action with the relevant US authorities to reverse this decision.
