Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reiterated Palestine’s right to defend itself, and said the Southeast Asian nation will continue its relationship with Hamas irrespective of U.S. pressure.
U.S. efforts to restrict external parties from supporting Hamas are unilateral and Malaysia will not recognize it, Anwar told Parliament on Tuesday. “Whatever happened is the legitimate right and struggle of the Palestinian people,” he said.
Anwar was responding to a question from an opposition lawmaker, who had sought the government’s stance on the U.S. House of Representative’s Hamas International Financing Prevention Act.
The bill was approved on Nov. 1 and imposes sanctions on foreign persons, agencies and governments that assist Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, or their affiliates.
Hmm...
How about Foreign Manufacturer investors in Malaysia. Will their export to US be affected? 🤔
