UN May Invite Palestinians to Join Debate
Arab diplomats expect the United Nations General Assembly to adopt a resolution inviting the Palestine Liberation Organization to represent the Palestinian people in the Palestine debate. Sponsored by 69 nations, including most Arab states except Jordan, the move garners support from Communist and Third World members.
