Palestinian Ambassador

Palestinian Ambassador, Mr Saadi Altumaizim, at the Castle, Osu.
Their discussions focused on the how to advance peace
initiatives between the two nations.
Vice President Mahama assured the Palestine envoy that Ghana
would continue to lend support to initiatives that would bring

work towards a thaw in their relationships.
Mr Altumaizi said his country was interested in a comprehensive
and lasting peace with her neighbour, but that had not been
possible owing to a number of unresolved issues.
