Abbas expects Bosnia to support Palestine's UN membership bid

SARAJEVO, Aug 15 (Hina) - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who is on a working visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina, said in Sarajevo on Monday that he had outlined to Bosnian officials the plans of the Palestinian authorities to request Palestine's full membership of the United Nations, adding that he expected Bosnia's representatives to support it.

We have discussed all issues, the negotiations with the United Nations, the Arab Spring, the Palestinian reconciliation. We have agreed on all topics and reached agreement to continue our consultations before we go to the United Nations, the Palestinian president said.

Bosnia is currently one of the ten nonpermanent members of the U.N. Security Council. Recently, it has been announced that the Palestinian authorities will apply for full UN membership at the General Assembly's meeting in September.

Abbas held talks with the members of the Bosnian tripartite presidency and Foreign Minister Sven Alkalaj. The talks were held behind closed doors.

Alkalaj told reporters that the Bosnian presidency would later consider which stand to take on the Palestinian UN membership bid, expressing hope that a necessary consensus would be reached in Bosnia on the matter.

He hinted a possibility for Bosnia to follow the European Union's policy in this regard.
