Mexico to Change Stance on Palestinian-Israeli Conflict Votes
(IMEMC-PA) Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Figari Casso has told Israel's Ambassador to Mexico Yoni Peled that Mexico has decided to change its voting strategy in all upcoming votes related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It will turn from voting in favor of the Palestinians to abstaining or voting for Israel, the Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot reported. Last week, Mexico voted for Israel during a debate at UNESCO. Prime Minister Netanyahu visited Mexico last September, and Israel sent aid there after an earthquake.
