A number of European states, “concerned” Arab countries and the United States are working on a concept for a unified Palestinian government that could attract reconstruction funds, Norway’s foreign minister said in an interview in Davos, Reuters reports.
“A number of countries are working with us […] trying to build a broad unity government,” Espen Barth Eide said, without naming the specific countries.
Norway was of the view that a unified Palestinian territory should be run by the Palestinian Authority, but “prefacing everything, it has to be what the Palestinians want”, he added.
