BAKU (Bernama): Malaysia will open an embassy accredited to Palestine to enable it to extend aid to the Palestinians more easily, says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad. The Prime Minister said the embassy will be set up in Jordan. "We know that Israel will not allow Malaysia to open an embassy in the Occupied Territory. As such, we will open the embassy in Jordan," said Dr Mahathir. Palestine currently has an embassy in Kuala Lumpur while the Ambassador of Malaysia to Egypt is accredited to Palestine.
