RAMALLAH: Secretary-General of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), Hussein al-Sheikh, said that the statements made by US President Joe Biden must 'transform into actions,' demanding him to call for an immediate ceasefire. "US President Biden's statements yesterday must transform into actions, starting with calling for an immediate ceasefire and putting forward a comprehensive political plan based on international legitimacy and international law, ending the occupation and establishing an independent Palestinian state," al-Sheikh said on a post he made he made on X, formerly known as Twitter. Biden said on Tuesday that Israel is losing support over its "indiscriminate" bombing of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and that the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should change. "Israel's security can rest on the United States, but right now it has more than the United States. It has the European Union, it has Europe, it has most of the world ... But they're starting to lose that support by indiscriminate bombing that takes place," The US President said to donors during a fundraiser Tuesday.
