The Palestinians in Chile

Highlight | The Palestinian community in Chile is the largest Palestinian community outside the Arab world; it originated in the late nineteenth century and developed in stages during the twentieth century, with most of its members hailing from the cities of Bethlehem, Beit Jala, and Beit Sahur in particular. Chilean Palestinians have maintained strong cultural and political ties with Palestine and have played an influential role in shaping Chile's foreign policy toward Palestine and Israel.
