** Palestine
The Secretary-General today sent a message to the International Meeting on the Question of Palestine, which is being held in Malta by the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People. In that message, the Secretary-General said that, to succeed, current efforts to achieve a peace deal need to be underpinned by visible progress on the ground. Both sides must seize the current window of opportunity to push the peace process forward, especially by acting on their obligations under the Road Map. He added that the coming months will be critical to our collective efforts to restore hope to the Palestinians. The message was delivered by Max Gaylord, Deputy Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process.
