Holy See-Palestine Bilateral Commission meeting


September 27, 2013 - The Bilateral Commission of the Holy See and the State of Palestine held a plenary meeting in the Vatican on Thursday to review the progress made so far towards a Global Agreement between the two sides. The meeting followed up on the last official meeting held in Ramallah in Palestine, Jan. 30. A joint statement said Thursday’s talks expressed great satisfaction over the progress achieved in formulating the text of the Agreement, which deals with essential aspects of the life and activity of the Catholic Church in Palestine, and encouraged the efforts of the joint technical group, urging it to complete the discussions on the remaining parts of the text, the formulation of which is already at an advanced stage. The next plenary meeting is planned for early 2014. (Source: Vatican)
