New Paper Release: The Right Of Palestinian Residents Of East Jerusalem To Participate In The 2021 Palestinian Elections

27 April 2021
As reports loom on the potential deferment of the Palestinian elections over the issue of voting in East Jerusalem, Ir Amim has released a timely analysis paper entitled "The Right of Palestinian Residents of East Jerusalem to Participate in the 2021 Palestinian Elections."

The paper explores the right of East Jerusalem Palestinians to vote and to be elected in the Palestinian Authority elections juxtaposed with the absence of full citizenship status of any state and its ensuing implications. It likewise examines the history of holding Palestinian elections in East Jerusalem and the provisions within the Oslo Accords which afford East Jerusalem residents the right to participate in the election process of the Palestinian Authority.
