French President Emmanuel Macron hosted Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Paris today, as part of France’s broader effort to advance the fragile ceasefire and push forward a peace plan.
France pledged earlier this year to recognize a Palestinian state, in coordination with other European countries.
The French newspaper Le Monde also noted that the visit comes almost exactly 21 years after Yasser Arafat’s death in a Paris suburb.
