Canada to review 'full range' of relations with Palestinians

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 30 November 2012 | 21.16

Canada is temporarily recalling its heads of mission to Israel and the West Bank, along with its United Nations representatives in New York and Geneva, to protest the Palestinians' successful bid on Thursday for upgraded status in the UN.

Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird pledged to "review the full range of its bilateral relationship" with the Palestinian Authority in the wake of the vote in New York City.

"Yesterday's unilateral action does nothing to further the Middle East peace process," Baird said in a statement released Friday morning. "It will not change the reality on the streets of the West Bank or Gaza. This unilateral step is an impediment to peace."

Canada was one of nine countries, including the U.S. and Israel, to oppose upgrading the UN observer status of the Palestinian Authority from "entity" to "non-member state."

"We again call on the Palestinian Authority and Israel to return to negotiations without preconditions, for the good of their people," Baird said.

There has been speculation that Canada will ask the Palestinian delegation in Ottawa to leave, or not renew its $300 million in aid to the Palestinian Authority over five years.
