Berri: It’s Important to Reveal to the World Conspiracies against Palestinians

Speaker Nabih Berri stressed on Friday the importance of Palestinian national unity given the talk of the recognition of an independent Palestinian state.

He said upon his arrival in Tehran to take part in the fifth international conference to support the Palestinian intifada: “It’s important to reveal to the world the conspiracies being plotted against the Palestinian cause.”

“This conference is more than a necessity during these current circumstances,” he added.

Last week, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas had submitted to the United Nations a bid for Palestine to be recognized as an independent state.

Berri noted however that Israel’s “protector”, the United States, will veto the bid.

The Tehran conference is scheduled to open on Saturday morning.
