Washington tightens visa rules for Abbas and PA officials
The United States has decided to extend the visa ban on Palestinian officials, including Mahmoud Abbas, due to their failure to implement promised reforms and their ongoing activities that hinder prospects for peace, ahead of the upcoming United Nations General Assembly. This ban, which was initiated during the Trump administration and continues under the Biden administration, has resulted in Abbas being denied entry into the United States to attend UN meetings, according to the Palestinian side. This move comes amid an American escalation against the Palestinian Authority, amidst worsening reform efforts and political tensions between the two sides.
