PA launches reforms aimed at revitalization, but structural changes remain elusive – Under international pressure to tee up to rule Gaza, Ramallah announces package to restructure various branches of its administration, but some see the step as merely cosmetic | The Times of Israel
Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh announced a comprehensive reform program Monday aimed at revitalizing the Palestinian Authority amid US demands that changes be implemented before Ramallah can take civilian control of Gaza once fighting there ends.
The package, launched under the auspices of PA President Mahmoud Abbas, will notably include the appointment of new regional governors, after twelve of them were sacked by Abbas in August without him announcing a reason. However, critics noted that many of the reforms will leave the same leadership in power and change little on the ground, falling short of widely impactful moves seen as necessary to rebuild trust in the apparatus.
