Key points from Abbas at UN speech
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas called on the United Nations General Assembly to hold Israel accountable and to ensure a two-state solution, amid difficult circumstances faced by Palestinians, including ongoing occupation and the blockade of Gaza, which has led to a humanitarian catastrophe. He stated that the Palestinian people are facing their most critical phase in years, after the Trump administration prevented Abbas from attending the UN General Assembly meetings in person. He reaffirmed his rejection of the American sanctions and punitive measures, which he described as illegal. Abbas delivered his speech remotely from Ramallah, calling for the lifting of American sanctions and the resumption of Israeli-Palestinian dialogue to achieve peace in accordance with international legitimacy.
