RAMALLAH, 25 March 2022, (TON): A senior EU official has reaffirmed Europe’s commitment to Palestinians following a partial suspension of its support last year.
The comments were made by Oliver Varhelyi, EU commissioner for neighborhood and enlargement, during a meeting with senior Palestinian officials in Ramallah.
The two sides also discussed the implementation of the new EU Agenda for the Mediterranean and its accompanying economic and investment plan.
Varhelyi alsomet Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyieh and representatives of the Christian community in East Jerusalem.
Shtayyieh said “Europe has been and remains a partner and friend of the Palestinian people and an essential supporter for decades.”
He stressed the importance of European financial support at a time when Palestine is being affected by global changes and their impact on prices, and the unjust Israeli cuts from our funds.
