PLO Wins Access to U.N. Security Council Debate
The Palestine Liberation Organization won permission to join the U.N. Security Council debate on Egyptian charges against Israel over actions in the occupied Arab territories. The move was approved 11-1 despite U.S. opposition with Britain, France, and Italy abstaining. Egypt seeks council condemnation of Israel’s conduct, while Israel argues Egypt violated a truce and calls for tone down propaganda. Meguid cites deterring elections showing support for the PLO in the territories.
