Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas met Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 12. Abbas asked for help in creating a new way of negotiating peace between Israelis and Palestinians, according to Palestinian Authority (PA) officials.
“President Abbas announced that for Palestinians, the U.S. is not welcome to play the role of a broker because of its bias towards Israel,” PA officials said. “At the same time, we remain committed to the peace process and wish to resume it and achieve a two-state solution.”
