Washington blocks Abbas from entering UN over reforms
The United States announced the imposition of restrictions and sanctions on the leadership of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority, including banning President Mahmoud Abbas and senior officials from entering its territories. This measure comes due to the failure to implement seven major reforms that the Authority had previously pledged to carry out. The reforms include enhancing transparency, accountability, and anti-corruption efforts, as well as expanding media freedoms. Washington also called for reforms in the salary system linked to prisoners and martyrs. It confirmed that the Authority still perpetuates a discourse that glorifies terrorism, continues to resort to international institutions instead of direct negotiations, and refuses to recognize internationally outside the framework of agreements with Israel. These measures follow mounting tensions between Washington and the Palestinian leadership, amidst reservations about the course of the political settlement.
