RAMALLAH: The Palestinians are to present a draft resolution to the United Nations Security Council Wednesday that would set a two-year deadline for Israel to end its occupation, an official said.
“The Palestinian leadership took a decision to go to the Security Council next Wednesday to vote on their project to end the occupation,” senior Palestine Liberation Organisation member Wassel Abu Yussef told AFP yesterday after a meeting in Ramallah.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry declined to comment ahead of today’s meeting in Rome between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State John Kerry.
