From 1990 to 2009 Afif Safieh served in London, Washington, D.C, and Moscow as a Palestinian General Delegate. Through those 19 years, he has met with YasserArafat, John Major, Tony Blair, Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, and Pope John Paul II.
The Peace Process: From Breakthrough to Breakdown describes the political and intellectual journey of one of Palestine's most skilled and distinguished diplomats, by merging Safieh's articles, lectures, and interviews covering three decades. His writings focus on the Palestinian stuggle for independence and are a testament to his vision and humanity.
Afif Safieh was born in Jerusalem in 1950 and is the ambassador for special missions for the Palestine Liberation Organization and Fatah deputy commissioner for international relations.
