Thirteen Palestinian students and researchers with Belgian university scholarships remain in limbo after another delay in their case, despite Foreign Minister Maxime Prévot's pledge to resolve it. The students express anger and disappointment, feeling instrumentalized in broader political dynamics. The delay suggests a disconnect between ministerial assurances and administrative or political obstacles, leaving the students' academic futures uncertain.
