officials at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the PLO鈥檚 Department of Public Diplomacy and Policy on the main issues of interest in Palestinian-Japanese relations in light of the formation of the Joint Palestinian-Japanese Working Group made up of academics and experts and the workshop planned for 26 January.</p><p>The conversations took place with three officials:</p><p><strong>Mr. Ahmad al Deek, the political advisor of the Minister for Foreign Affairs</strong></p><p><strong>Ms. Rana Abu Hakmeh, Director of the East Asia Department,</strong></p><p><strong>Mr. Abdualah Awwad, Department of Public Diplomacy and Policy, PLO聽</strong></p><p><em>The following topics were raised and emphasized by the Palestinian officials:</em></p><ol><li>The PA-PLO are interested in discussing Japan鈥檚 recognition of the State of Palestine. This recognition is seen as a confirmation of Japan鈥檚 support for the two-state solution.</li><li>All officials showed great interest in a greater Japanese role in providing political support for the Palestinian diplomacy due to Japan鈥檚 great standing and role in the international system.</li><li>The Palestinians are eager to see Japan play a greater role in encouraging and promoting international efforts to put an end to the Israeli violations of international law, particularly in the area of settlement expansion, which is seen detrimental to the prospects of the two-state solution. <em>. </em><a href="https://pcpsr.org/sites/default/files/PA_PLO%20Dipomatic%20Position%20on%20Japanese-Palestinian%20Relations%20ENGLISH.pdf">Full Report</a><sub><a href="/sites/default/files/PA_PLO%20Dipomatic%20Position%20on%20Japanese-Palestinian%20Relations%20ENGLISH.pdf"><img src="http://www.pcpsr.org/sites/default/files/pdf.gif" /></a></sub></li></ol></div></div></div> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div id="banner6"> <div class="region region-banner6"> <div class="block block-block pcpsr_footer" id="block-block-9"> <div class="content"> <div><p class="rtecenter"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif"><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR)</strong><br /> <strong>Off Irsal street,聽</strong></span></span><strong><span style="color:black"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:10.5pt">2 Sa鈥檇 Ibn Abi Waqqas Street, Ramallah</span></span>,聽</span></strong><span style="font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif"><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>P.O.Box 76, Ramallah , Palestine , 聽Tel: +970-2-2964932</strong></span></span><br /> <span style="font-size:14px"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif"><strong><a href="mailto:pcpsr@pcpsr.org">email: pcpsr@pcpsr.org</a>聽</strong></span></span></p></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="pcpsr-footer"> <div class="pcpsr-footer-inner"> <div class="region region-footer-message"> <div class="block block-menu-block" id="block-menu-block-1"> <div class="menu-block-wrapper menu-block-1 menu-name-menu-footer-menu parent-mlid-0 menu-level-1"> <ul class="menu"><li class="first leaf menu-mlid-1300"><a href="/en">Home</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-1302"><a href="/en/about-psr-page">About us</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-1319"><a href="/en/node/179">Domestic Politics</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-1316"><a href="/en/node/104">Strategic Analysis</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-1317"><a href="/en/node/105">Survey Research</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-1310"><a href="/en/search-data-files">Data Files</a></li> <li class="last leaf menu-mlid-1312"><a href="/en/contact-us">Contact us</a></li> </ul></div> </div> <div class="block block-block" id="block-block-4"> <p>Powered By <a href="http://www.tassmeem.com">Tassmeem Co.Ltd</a></p> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </div> </body> </html>
