UN names non-existent country to head Group of 77

“The ‘State of Palestine’ will reportedly preside next year over the largest bloc of developing nations at the United Nations.

“Palestine — which is not a member state of the UN but has observer state status — was chosen to head the so-called Group of 77, a consortium now consisting of 134 nations that often speaks in one voice at the UN General Assembly, starting January 1, 2019, The New York Times reported Tuesday.”

Even though the UN regularly passes resolutions against Israel, designating non-state Palestine to chair a group of recognized states comes as a surprise. We can look for increased anti-Israel propaganda and measures. The United States and Israel should leave the United Nations.
