RAMALLAH, West Bank, Aug. 25 (UPI) -- A British professor who occasionally gives the Palestinians legal advice warned against their statehood bid next month at the United Nations, Ma'an reported.
A seven-page document from Guy-Goodwin Gill, obtained by Ma'an, states that an initiative to transfer Palestinian representation from the Palestinian Liberation Organization to a new state will terminate the legal status the PLO has had at the United Nations since 1975.
