Palestinian Authority Postpones Parliamentary Elections

Majdi Mohammed / AP Updated April 29, 2021 at 6:39 PM ET RAMALLAH, West Bank – It was meant to be a historic and long-overdue vote aimed at ending 15 years of paralyzed and divided leadership. Instead, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Thursday called off next month s parliamentary elections after challengers from his own party threatened to weaken his hold on power. Abbas decision, which came just two days before campaigning was supposed to begin, indefinitely postponed the May 22 vote and apparently a July presidential election as well. The postponement angered Palestinians eager to replace a president who has not held a vote in a decade-and-a-half and failed to deliver on his main goal of achieving independence from Israel. Street protests broke out in several cities in the West Bank and Gaza.

Palestinian leaders weigh delay of long-awaited vote By AFP - Apr 29,2021 - Last updated at Apr 29,2021 Palestinian supporters of Mohammed Dahlan s ‘Future’Party rally against a possible delay of elections in Jerusalem on Wednesday (AFP photo)  RAMALLAH, Palestinian Territories Palestinian leaders were set to decide on Thursday whether to hold elections next month as scheduled or call a delay that could trigger further frustration in a divided society which last voted in 2006. Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and blockaded Gaza Strip have voiced hope that the polls could help restore credibility and heal rifts. Fateh, which controls the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority(PA), reached an agreement with its long-standing rival Hamas, the Islamists who control Gaza, to hold legislative polls on May 22 and a presidential vote on July 31.
