    “During the coming September and October, there will be a new situation and ground reality regarding the Palestinian state and that new situation should be handled and dealt with,” he said. “We hope the Palestinian state will be a part of the international community by that time,” he added.

    “Norway as the head state of the donors’ committee will exert more efforts with all the parties concerned, mainly the US and the EU to increase their financial and political support to the Palestinians,” he said.

    Last month, FM Støre announced Palestine was to get its own embassy in Oslo during Mr Fayyad’s visit to Norway, “in recognition of the work undertaken by the autonomous Palestinian authorities,” he said.

    The Palestinian Embassy was established because the World Bank stated it believed Palestine was ready to assume the responsibilities of state.
