PrintWhat Next?: The Palestinian U.N. Bid, Israel and Options for the U.S.
Short Description:
On September 23, President Mahmoud Abbas submitted an application to the U.N. Secretary-General for Palestine's admission as a full state member of the United Nations. What is needed to move the peace process forward? Is the diplomatic track in sync with the Palestinian state-building effort? What are the options for U.S. policy? On October 7, 2011, the United States Institute of Peace hosted a distinguished panel of discussants to explore these questions.
