RAMALLAH, Wednesday, February 19, 2020 (WAFA) – Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh met today with the new European Union representative to the Palestinian territories, Sven Kuhn von Burgsdorff, during which he called on Europe to recognize Palestine and create an international mechanism for it.

Shtayyeh also called on the European Union to fill the void resulting from the failure of the American proposal, the so-called deal of the century, which sided completely with Israel.

Shtayyeh congratulated Burgsdorff on his new position, and wished him success in his duties in developing relations between Europe and Palestine, stressing that Europe has always been important to Palestine at the political and developmental levels.
