However, the dissatisfaction has not led to a complete boycott.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\" data-start=\"1135\" data-end=\"1414\">According to the source, who requested anonymity, the discomfort stems from the participation of both Israeli and Palestinian opposition figures, giving the event the appearance of being an anti-government conference on both sides, especially with support from an Arab country.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\" data-start=\"1416\" data-end=\"1598\">The Paris meeting is set to be held on June 13, just days before the larger international conference at the United Nations in New York, focused on advancing the two-state solution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\" data-start=\"1600\" data-end=\"1886\">The Paris conference is seen as an attempt to break the political deadlock in the Palestinian cause and serve as a preparatory step for the New York summit on June 17. It follows a series of four preparatory workshops, the latest held in Rabat in May, with the final one set in Paris.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\" data-start=\"1888\" data-end=\"2211\"><strong data-start=\"1888\" data-end=\"1920\">Controversy Over UAE Funding<\/strong><br data-start=\"1920\" data-end=\"1923\" \/>Sources revealed that the UAE had offered financial support for the Paris conference, proposing to fund around 500 participants from both Palestinian and Israeli sides. However, Palestinian parties declined the offer, resulting in the funds being redirected to official French entities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-12\" data-start=\"2213\" data-end=\"2412\">This funding shift reportedly led to invitations being extended to controversial figures like former Fatah member Nasser al-Qudwa, now based in Paris, and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-13\" data-start=\"2414\" data-end=\"2650\">According to the Paris Peace Forum website, the conference aims to bring together civil society representatives\u2014primarily Palestinians and Israelis\u2014committed to a shared future based on mutual recognition, peace, and security for all.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18698\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18698\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18698 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/963-2.jpg\" alt=\"According to the Paris Peace Forum website, the conference aims to bring together civil society representatives\u2014primarily Palestinians and Israelis\u2014committed to a shared future based on mutual recognition, peace, and security for all.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/963-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/963-2-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/963-2-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18698\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">France Palestinian statehood<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-14\" data-start=\"2652\" data-end=\"3132\"><strong data-start=\"2652\" data-end=\"2696\">Palestinian Debate and Strategic Context<\/strong><br data-start=\"2696\" data-end=\"2699\" \/>Economist and Palestinian political analyst Samir Hulileh stated that while some aspects of the Paris conference are controversial, the broader diplomatic context is significant. He emphasized Vice President Hussein al-Sheikh\u2019s recent remarks about the importance of the upcoming New York summit and President Abbas\u2019s letters to French President Emmanuel Macron and Saudi leaders outlining reform plans and readiness for statehood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-15\" data-start=\"3134\" data-end=\"3389\">Hulileh believes the Palestinian leadership is banking on French and Saudi diplomatic efforts post-October 7 to reinitiate political negotiations, particularly since Saudi normalization with Israel is conditional on progress toward a two-state solution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-16\" data-start=\"3391\" data-end=\"3740\">Hulileh said the Paris conference aims to build public and civil society support for the two-state solution and to promote dialogue between Palestinian and Israeli stakeholders, including the private sector. However, the inclusion of political and military figures like Olmert and al-Qudwa has sparked criticism and made the event appear partisan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-17\" data-start=\"3742\" data-end=\"4017\">He confirmed that the Palestinian side requested balanced representation and prior agreement on the final statement. These conditions were reportedly met, and Hulileh emphasized that, in principle, the event serves the Palestinian cause and supports the two-state solution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-18\" data-start=\"4019\" data-end=\"4201\">He acknowledged France&#8217;s wavering position on Palestinian recognition but stressed the broader goal is to build international momentum for statehood and end the Israeli occupation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-19\" data-start=\"4203\" data-end=\"4443\"><strong data-start=\"4203\" data-end=\"4237\">BDS Movement Calls for Boycott<\/strong><br data-start=\"4237\" data-end=\"4240\" \/>In sharp contrast, the Palestinian National Committee for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS)\u2014the largest coalition of Palestinian civil society\u2014called for a total boycott of the Paris conference.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-20\" data-start=\"4445\" data-end=\"4676\">In its statement, BDS described the conference as a normalization attempt that violates Palestinian consensus since 2007. It accused France of attempting to rehabilitate Israel\u2019s apartheid regime amid escalating global isolation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-21\" data-start=\"4678\" data-end=\"4939\">BDS emphasized that the Paris Forum\u2019s stated goals ignore Palestinians&#8217; inalienable rights under international law, particularly the right of return and self-determination, and criticized the event&#8217;s funding by Amazon, Microsoft, and the UAE Embassy in Paris.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-22\" data-start=\"4941\" data-end=\"5184\">The statement noted that both tech giants provide AI and cloud services that help Israel intensify its military operations in Gaza, and denounced the UAE as a \u201crepressive regime\u201d complicit in regional war crimes and strategic ally of Israel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-23\" data-start=\"5186\" data-end=\"5428\">BDS concluded that participating in such events offers a diplomatic cover for Israel&#8217;s genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, and violates the anti-normalization standards upheld by the vast majority of Palestinian society.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17513\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17513\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17513 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/366.jpg\" alt=\"A Palestinian source stated that the Palestinian Authority is not entirely satisfied with certain aspects of the upcoming Paris Peace Conference, organized by the Paris Peace Forum, scheduled for Friday.
