PLO votes to create vice president post for first time: Council member

The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) voted on Thursday to establish the position of vice president, potentially paving the way for a successor to Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas.

"A vote was held to create the position of vice president," Rizq Namoura, a member of the PLO's central council, said in an interview with Palestine TV. It is the first time such a role has been created since the organization’s founding decades ago.
