P.L.O. Markets Arab Peace Initiative in U.S.

May 28th, 2009 by Eoghan

The Palestinian Liberation Organization (P.L.O.) has taken out a full-page ad in today’s Washington Post to publicize the Arab Peace Initiative, the 2002 proposal by the League of Arab States to normalize relations with Israel in exchange for Palestinian independence. The ad notes that the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC), which encompasses Muslim nations around the world, has also endorsed the initiative on numerous occasions, including at a foreign ministers meeting in Tehran in 2003. The OIC has also called for “the deployment of international forces to secure stability and calm in the region to supervise and monitor the implementation of the Road Map.”
