Copenhagen [Denmark], August 31 (ANI/WAM): The EU has urged the United States to reconsider its decision to deny visas to Palestinian officials seeking to attend next month UN General Assembly.

In the light of the existing agreements between the UN and its host state, we all urge for this decision to be reconsidered, Kaja Kallas, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, said on Saturday following a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Copenhagen.
