U.S. urged to restore Palestinian leader's visa

PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY President Mahmoud Abbas at the U.N. in 2024.

The Palestinian Authority president’s office on Saturday urged the U.S. government to reverse its unusual decision to revoke his visa, weeks before he was to appear at the U.N.’s main annual meeting and an international conference about creating a Palestinian state.

The 27-nation European Union asked the Trump administration to reconsider the move, which drew broad criticism.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio rescinded the visas of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and 80 other officials before next month's annual meeting of the United Nations General Assembly, the State Department said Friday, citing national security interests. Abbas has addressed the General Assembly for many years, including in 2024, and generally leads the Palestinian delegation.
