$1 million for Occupied Palestinian Territories<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

New Zealand will provide a $1 million assistance package to the Occupied Palestinian Territories in support of the peace process and humanitarian needs, Foreign Minister Phil Goff announced today. <\/p>\n

“NZAID, the government’s aid agency, will contribute $500,000 to the United Nations International Children’s Fund (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµICEF) Relief Appeal and $500,000 to the Public Financial Management Reform Trust Fund for the West Bank and Gaza, through the World Bank," Mr Goff said. <\/p>\n

"This contribution will be alongside, and in support of, intensified efforts by the quartet (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ, US, EU, Russia) to assist Palestinian economic regeneration and governance reform which was endorsed by the G8. <\/p>\n

“New Zealand also contributes $300,000 a year for basic education, health, and social services to more than four million registered Palestinian refugees. <\/p>\n

“We are encouraged by recent developments in the Arab-Israeli conflict and we strongly support the Road Map peace process, which is a two-state solution involving two sovereign states living side by side. <\/p>\n

“The recently approved aid contributions are a reflection of New Zealand’s wish to directly support the development of a viable Palestinian State. <\/p>\n

“During my recent meeting with the new Israeli Ambassador I endorsed Israel’s withdrawal from the Gaza Peninsula and parts of the West Bank as a step forward towards peace. However enormous challenge lie ahead in ensuring a durable peace process and a sustainable livelihood and future for Gaza’s 1.4 million Palestinians. <\/p>\n

“The Palestinians must be helped to restore good governance, central authority and essential services to engage in constructive negotiations towards a final settlement based on Israel and a Palestinian state.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
