Palestinian Foreign Affairs Minister Riyad Al-Malki has praised the Interpol for admitting the State of Palestine as a member of the organization.

"The overwhelming vote in support of Palestine's membership is "a vote of confidence in Palestine's law enforcement capabilities and commitment to the core values of the organization. Palestine's admission to the Interpol is a victory for law enforcement and global cooperation," the minister was quoted by the Palestinian Info and News Agency (WAFA).
