Istanbul - Petra
Participants of the Fourth Palestinian Business Forum (PBF), which concluded its meetings in Turkey Wednesday evening, denounced the economic blockade imposed on the Gaza Strip.
The meeting stressed that reconstruction of the coastal enclave is a humanitarian issue and should not be subject to political machinations.
The two-day meeting condemned the continuous Israeli aggression against Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is part of its war to Judaize the holy city.
Participants at the conference praised the steadfastness of Jerusalemites and the Palestinian people in defending Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The 4th Session of the PBF kicked off on November 25 with the participation of 1,500 Palestinian businessmen under the main theme of "Opportunities and Challenges." Established in 2006, the PBF gathers Palestinian businessmen from all around the world to raise tangible solutions to common problems, to enhance communication, and to facilitate business networking initiatives.
