France laments election delays
France expressed its regret over the postponement of the Palestinian legislative elections, which were originally scheduled for November 2026. It called on the Palestinian Authority to reconsider its decision and to hold the presidential and legislative elections on time without delay. France emphasized that the postponement hinders the Palestinian people's right to democratic expression and impacts the foundations of the Palestinian state. It also highlighted the need to give the Palestinian people's voice back and to support efforts to build institutions, reaffirming France's commitment to a solution based on the two-state approach and its readiness to assist in monitoring the electoral process and support the State of Palestine's efforts. This statement came after President Mahmoud Abbas issued a decree canceling the scheduled elections and postponing them to September 2027 due to procedural obstacles imposed by the Israeli occupation.
