Abbas with the petition next day 27 in the General Assembly of the UN that The Organization for the Liberation of Palestine (PLO), of having the status of "State non member", challenges to the pressures of United States.

Mahmoud Abbas said: We "have 133 countries that recognize the State of Palestine and dozens of them maintain diplomatic relationships with us." "We are willing to confront the consequence." These declarations made them yesterday in Ramala.

As we will remember, Palestine, is recognized as a permanent observer, what allows to participate in sessions and works of the General Assembly of the UN. In 2011, requested to the multilateral organism the recognition like the 194 State member.

As it seems, the President of United States, Barack Obama, it has demanded to paralyze the method of adhesion until after the presidential American elections.

With the decision of the Palestinians, one of the possible sanctions that the United States can impose them, serious the blocking for the Congress of the help that they are granted annually. It happened this way in 2011 when they requested to the UN the entrance like State of full right.

The ball this in the roof of the UN.
