Description

Australia is facing criticism from some for abstaining from voting on a United Nations resolution to end the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories within twelve months. The non-binding vote passed the UN General Assembly with 142 nations voting in favour, twelve voting against and 43 abstaining. The Federal Opposition says Australia should have opposed the resolution and that view is shared by the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, while the Greens say Australia should have voted in favour. Izzat Abdulhadi is Head of the General Delegation of Palestine to Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific. He spoke with SBS Chief Political Correspondent Anna Henderson.
