Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the main reason that led the Palestinian parties to take the decision to postpone the elections was Israel’s refusal to respond to the request of Palestinian Authority to hold the election in East Jerusalem and its obstruction of the election campaigns. The Ministry added in its press release “We call upon the Israeli Government to end its obstructive policies and to respect the provisions of the 1995 Oslo Interim Agreement, so that the Palestinian elections can be held at the earliest possibility” For further details, click here.
