Palestinian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Varsen Aghabekian Shahin met with a delegation consisting of former US Ambassador and Princeton University professor Daniel Kurtzer and a group of university students.

According to a statement issued by the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Shahin briefed the delegation on the latest developments in Palestine amid continuing Israeli violations against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

Emphasizing that ending the occupation and establishing an independent Palestinian state are essential to achieving a just and lasting peace, Shahin stated that the United States should play an active role in ending the occupation rather than managing it.

Shahin also highlighted the importance of engaging with the Palestinian leadership and people as key stakeholders in the process of finding a solution to the Palestinian issue.
