ATFP Promotes Informed Policy Discussion, says Obama's MidEast Coordinator

On October 29, ATFP received yet another remarkable recognition of its impact in Washington. President Barack Obama sent a letter to ATFP’s 10th Anniversary Gala, stating that he is “pleased to have a partner in ATFP who shares this vision for peace." The President described this partnership as based on the quest for "a just and lasting resolution to a conflict that has continued for far too long." President Obama’s Special Assistant and White House Middle East Coordinator, Philip Gordon, read the letter at the Gala. Dr. Gordon added that ATFP has “carved out space for a nuanced, informed policy discussion, helping provide the American public with a better understanding of the Palestinian narrative and its importance for the United States.”
