Malaysia aware of risk in championing Palestinian cause, says Anwar

RIYADH: Malaysia is aware and expects repercussions from Western countries for championing the Palestinian cause, but will continue to highlight the plight of the Palestinian people at the international stage.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said he had no choice in the matter as the Palestinian cause was a humanitarian issue as they have continued to suffer due to the oppression and cruelty of the Zionist regime.
