Who is Palestine’s new prime minister, and does he represent a shift from President Mahmud Abbas?
Senior Fatah official Mohammad Shtayyeh receives a designation letter from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to form a new Palestinian government, in Ramallah, in the Israeli-occupied West Bank in this handout picture released March 10, 2019.
He served as a minister of public works and housing between 2005-2006 and 2008-2010 and head of the Palestinian Economic Council for Development and Reconstruction. Shtayeh holds a doctorate in economic development from the University of Sussex, UK, and worked as a professor and dean at Birzeit University.
Abbas’ presidential term ended long ago in 2009, since then he has maintained leadership without elections and through political manoeuvring. He said the creation of "a separatist government ... will prolong Palestinian division."
