RAMALLAH, Palestinian Territories – Dozens of Palestinian protesters in Ramallah hurled eggs and shoes at the convoy of Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird.
Baird travelled to the West Bank city today to meet with Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad Malki.
The protesters held signs reading: “Baird you are not welcome in Palestine.”
Activists from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah party had earlier called for a boycott of the minister because of the Canadian government’s perceived pro-Israel stance.
