EU urges US to reconsider UN summit visa denial for Palestinians

The EU wants the United States to reconsider its decision to deny visas to Palestinian officials seeking to attend next month's U.N. General Assembly, the bloc's top diplomat said Saturday.

"In the light of the existing agreements between the U.N. and its host state, we all urge for this decision to be reconsidered," Kaja Kallas said following a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Copenhagen.
