Conference of Donors for the Palestinian Territories (Paris, 17 December 2007)

On 17 December 2007, France hosted in Paris a conference of donors for the Palestinian Territories, as proposed by the Palestinian President, Mr Mahmoud Abbas, and the Prime Minister, Mr Salam Fayyad.

The International Donors’ Conference for the Palestinian State has provided a strong signal of political and financial support to the government of President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and their vision of a future Palestinian State. This support will be essential to underpin the political process launched in Annapolis last November.
