Palestinian Official Condemns Israeli Threats to Freeze Tax Revenues

Pyongyang, December 9 (KCNA) -- Hanan Ashrawi, a member of Palestine Liberation Organization's Executive Committee, on Tuesday condemned Israeli threats to freeze tax revenues again if Palestinians continued efforts to obtain membership in United Nations agencies.

"The continued withholding of the money is a theft and it aims to get political concessions," Ashrawi said, adding that the Palestinian leadership will not stop bidding for the UN membership.
