PA to Soften UN Statehood Bid?
(Ynet News) Attila Somfalvi - The Palestinian Authority has spent the past few days trying to advance a move to soften its bid for recognition at the UN in order to gain wider support among European nations. According to the proposed version, the PLO's status within UN institutes will be significantly upgraded but without an official declaration of independence. A Palestinian official confirmed that the PA fears that major European powers will not endorse the UN bid and has therefore decided to try to revise the proposal.
