P.L.O Commissioner Visits Belize

The conflict between Palestine and Israel has been raging for over a century, making it one of the most violent disputes in the world. This ongoing struggle over land, borders, and rights includes the current war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. Belize has shown its support for the Palestinians, publicly calling for Israel to halt its attacks. Today, at the invitation of Nancy Marin, Leader of the Belize People’s Front, a delegation from the Palestinian Liberation Organization (P.L.O.) is visiting Belize. The delegation, led by P.L.O. Commissioner and Coordinator of the Anti-Apartheid Department, Mohamed Salam, will be meeting with government officials.
