The Palestinian Cabinet, headed by Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh, condemned during its weekly meeting held in Ramallah the US state department deletion of the Palestinian territories from the list of countries on its website.
The cabinet said that this US move confirms the American bias towards Israel, stressing that such move cannot override the Palestinian rights, which the world countries have unanimously recognized.
The cabinet stressed the importance of the upcoming 74th session of the UN General Assembly in mid-September, where President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to deliver an important speech before the United Nations Forum, hold bilateral meetings with heads of state, as well as lead the delegation of the Group of 77 and China, which will be held on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly session.
