Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas announced today that the Palestinian Authority headed by him "will review relations you“ with the United States after the American veto on a United Nations resolution on Palestinian membership in the United Nations, reported France Presse, quoted by BTA.

„The Palestinian leadership will review bilateral relations with the United States to ensure the preservation of the interests of our people, our cause and our rights,”, Abbas said in an interview with the Palestinian Wafa news agency.

On Thursday, the US blocked a resolution in the UN Security Council to accept Palestine as a full member of the world organization. The Palestinian Authority controls parts of the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
