Leila Shahid – Palestinian Authority Ambassador to the EU

from The Interview · host BBC World Service

The politics of Palestine are in a state of flux.

Hardtalk speaks with the Palestinian Authority envoy to the European Union Leila Shahid. Is the game up for Palestine's old guard moderates?(Image: Leila Shahid, Credit: AFP/Getty Images)
