Palestine is hoping to upgrade its observer status to a full membership in Interpol this fall. The international police organization's 85th General Assembly is set to take place in November in Bali, Indonesia.
It was reported that European police officials are working with the Palestinians to prepare them for the upcoming discussion. Joeri Van Nuffel, the former chief inspector of security at Brussels’ Zaventem airport, has been coaching Palestinian officials. Van Nuffel joined Interpol in 2012 and has been working with the EU Coordinating Office for Palestinian Police Support. The latter declined to comment as it is a technical office.
