(Sputnik) - The Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) has laid forth certain conditions for normalising ties with the United States.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas chaired a meeting of the PLO Executive Committee on Saturday.
The committee agreed to restore ties with the US if the new administration allows for the PLO office in Washington to resume its work.
Other conditions include withdrawing support for Israeli plans to extend its sovereignty over parts of the West Bank and settlement activity and resuming two-state solution discussions.
In September, US President-elect Joe Biden said that it was important for more countries to recognise Israel as a sovereign state but said it was just as important to continue working toward a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
