Abbas Asks U.N. for International Mideast Conference Next Year
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas appealed Friday to the United Nations to arrange an international conference early next year on the peace process, in the wake of two Gulf Arab states' recognition of Israel.
"The conference should have full authority to launch a genuine peace process based on international law," Abbas told the UN General Assembly in a recorded address.
