The banning of Mahmoud Abbas from the UN General Assembly must not be tolerated

The US decision to ban Mahmoud Abbas from the UN General Assembly is a blatant violation of international law and the Headquarters Agreement. It is an attempt to silence a people struggling for their independence, at a time when more and more European states are preparing to recognize Palestine.

The New Left denounces this provocative action and calls on the Greek government to take a clear position. 

The voice of Palestine must be heard at the UN.
