The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) was formally established on June 2, 1964 by the Arab League as an umbrella organization representing various Palestinian organizations and movements, with the stated goal of liberation of Palestine. The founding convention for the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) was held in Jerusalem on May 28, 1964.
Since 1974, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) has a presence within the United Nations, not as a full member state but as observer status and is invited to participate in UN activities. Since 2012, the PLO operates under the name "Palestine" as a non-member observer state, allowing it to participate in UN sessions and conferences, maintain a permanent observer mission, and sign UN treaties More
