The Greek parliament voted unanimously on Tuesday to approve a resolution recognizing the Palestinian Authority as an independent Arab country.
PA leader Mahmoud Abbas was present in the chamber during the vote, which has no binding effect on the government.
“And the winner is the poor & innocent victim of a vicious conspiracy by the Eurozone elites” tweeted Aljazeera English journalist and “Eurozone analyst” Yannis Koutsomitis.
Abbas — who at last has revealed his true intent to eliminate the State of Israel altogether — later addressed the parliament.
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras decline to respond to questions from journalists who asked when Greece might adopt the resolution.
For the time being, the vote remains just that: a resolution to recognize the Palestinian Authority as an independent Arab country, with no legal impact and no further power.
