AJC, which has long advocated for the search for a two-state solution, denounced the incendiary speech by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to the Palestinian Central Council.
An AJC delegation just concluded a two-day trip to Poland, highlighted by hour-long meetings with both President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.
It is now seven years, almost to the day, since the eruption of the raging regional tumult (some naïve souls still call it "the Arab Spring"). The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan remains an island of stability in the eye of the storm – indeed, of several storms seemingly sweeping stronger states into the abyss.
The delegation, led by AJC CEO David Harris, met with Chancellor Sebastian Kurz; Chairs of the parliamentary groups for the liberal NEOS, center-right ÖVP, and center-left SPÖ; Israeli Ambassador Talya Lador-Fresher; and Chargés d’Affaires of the U.S. Embassy Eugene Young.
