We gathered today to mark the launch of the Palestinian Chapter of the International Chamber of Commerce—an important milestone that we are proud to support through our partners at UNDP Palestinian as part of our Economic Resilience Programme. This launch, held under the patronage of the Palestinian Prime Minister, represents a significant step toward connecting Palestinian businesses and producers with international markets and creating new opportunities for trade and investment.
We extend our sincere thanks to all our local and international partners whose efforts made this achievement possible. We look forward to seeing this important initiative grow and deliver tangible benefits for the Palestinian private sector and economy.
