Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will pay a three-day visit to Algeria Sunday to discuss with his Algerian counterpart Abdelaziz Bouteflika the latest developments in the Palestinian cause.
Talks will also focus on ways to support Palestine's bid to the UN Security Council to set a time frame to end Israel's occupation and establish an independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds (occupied East Jerusalem) as its capital.
