Orwellian UK BANNED Press TV: The United Nations has hailed the formation of a Palestinian unity government amid growing isolation of apartheid Israel over the move.
He added that the UN “underscored the need for progress towards Palestinian unity in line with existing resolutions, within the framework of the Palestinian Authority and the commitments of the Palestine Liberation Organization.”
"The secretary general counts on a constructive approach by regional stakeholders,” the UN spokesman stated.
Dujarric also said the international body was “ready to lend its full support to the newly formed government in its effort to reunite the West Bank and Gaza,” adding that “the serious political, security, humanitarian, and economic challenges in Gaza, and holding long overdue elections” are issues that need to be addressed.
The new cabinet of the Palestinian unity government was sworn in before Abbas in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah on Monday. The cabinet is led by Hamdallah and has 17 ministers including five from the Hamas movement.
In April, Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas signed an agreement to end years of rivalry and form a unity government.
