Headline: “Shtayyeh demanded to create a monetary checking mechanism vis-à-vis Israel in order to stop its policy of theft”
“[PA] Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh renewed his demand that the international community – and the donor states in particular – pressure Israel to stop the deductions from the Palestinian tax money (refers to Anti “Pay-for-Slay” Law to deduct terrorist salaries; see note below –Ed.), and create a mechanism to check all of the monetary matters with it in order to stop the policy of monetary theft that it is carrying out.
Shtayyeh said this yesterday [May 16, 2019] while meeting in his office in Ramallah with Representative of Norway in Palestine H ilde Haralstad.
The prime minister discussed the results of the last donors’ meeting in Brussels with the representative of Norway, and emphasized the need for the international community to play an active role against the American and Israeli monetary war to which our people is being subjected.”
