Bilateral Relations
See also: International recognition of the State of Palestine Further information: List of diplomatic missions of Palestine and List of diplomatic missions to PalestineThe Palestinian National Authority is represented abroad by the PLO, which maintains a network of missions and embassies. Most states that have recognised the State of Palestine have elevated the PLO representation in their country to the status of embassy. A number of other states have granted some form of diplomatic status to a PLO delegation, falling short of full diplomatic recognition. In some cases, as a matter of courtesy, these delegations and missions have been granted diplomatic privileges, and are often referred to as "embassies" with their heads as "ambassadors".
Representation of foreign countries to the PNA is performed by missions or offices in Ramallah and Gaza. States that recognise the State of Palestine also accredit to the PLO (acting as its government-in-exile) non-resident ambassadors residing in third countries.

Famous quotes containing the word relations:
“She has problems with separation; he has trouble with unity—problems that make themselves felt in our relationships with our children just as they do in our relations with each other. She pulls for connection; he pushes for separateness. She tends to feel shut out; he tends to feel overwhelmed and intruded upon. It’s one of the reasons why she turns so eagerly to children—especially when they’re very young.”
—Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
