US denies Palestinian president visa for second year; Abbas addresses UN via video
Irish IndependentLO·US · PS·about 5 hours ago
The US refused a visa to Sudan's leader for a scheduled UN General Assembly speech, prompting the UN Secretary-General to express deep concern. This is a rare, direct US move against a head of state's UN access, likely tied to Sudan's ongoing conflict and international pressure. The denial signals heightened US-Sudan friction and may escalate diplomatic tensions.
