As of 2016, Taxation in the State of Palestine is subject to the Oslo Accords, notably the Protocol on Economic Relations or "Paris Protocol", which was signed in 1994 by the PLO and Israel.
 The Paris Protocol established a customs union, which essentially formalized the existing situation where the Palestinian economy was merged into the Israeli one.
 Formally, the Palestinian Authority (PA) is entitled to collect taxes from the Palestinians in the Palestinian territories, but some 75% of the total tax revenue was as of 2014 collected by Israel on behalf of the PA and transferred on monthly basis.
 Israel has regularly withheld the taxes it owes the Palestinian Authority.
The Oslo Accords are a set of agreements between the Government of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO): the Oslo I Accord, signed in Washington, D.C., in 1993; and the Oslo II Accord, signed in Taba, Egypt, in 1995.
 The Oslo Accords marked the start of the Oslo process, a peace process aimed at achieving a peace treaty based on United Nations Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338, and at fulfilling the "right of the Palestinian people to self-determination."
 The Oslo process started after secret negotiations in Oslo, resulting in the recognition by the PLO of the State of Israel and the recognition by Israel of the PLO as the representative of the Palestinian people and as a partner in negotiations.
The Palestinian Authority Government of 1996 was a government of the Palestinian National Authority (PA), established following the first general elections after the conclusion of the Oslo Accords.

 Elections were held on 20 January 1996.

 In November 1988, the PLO's Palestinian National Council declared the independence of the State of Palestine and in 1994 the PLO established the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) following the Oslo Accords.
 The PLO Executive Committee performs the functions of the government of the State of Palestine.
 Currently, the PLO maintains a network of offices in foreign countries and also represents the PNA abroad.
Relations between Romania and PLO have been strong since the beginning of the Communist regime in Romania in 1947.
 Relations between Romania and the PLO were established and strengthened under the regime of Nicolae Ceauşescu, who ruled Romania from 1965 until 1989.
 In 1974 Romania recognized the PLO and a representative office was established in Bucharest.
 The PLO representative office later became an embassy.
 During that time many Palestinian militants were trained in Romania and most of the weapons that the PLO used against Israel were made in the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact countries including Romania.
 Even after the Romanian Revolution of 1989 which overthrew the communist regime and established a democratic republic, Romania remained committed to the Middle East peace process and the establishment of a separate Palestinian state.
 In fact, Romania had maintained bilateral relations both with Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization and was seen by both sides as a neutral mediator.
 Romania was one of the first countries to recognize the Palestinian Authority after the Palestinian Declaration of Independence on November 15, 1988.
 Romania has since maintained relations with the Palestinian Authority and has always supported Palestinians' cause in the United Nations.
The Palestinian Declaration of Independence is a statement written by the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish and proclaimed by Yasser Arafat on 15 November 1988.
 It had previously been adopted by the Palestinian National Council, the legislative body of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), by a vote of 253 in favour 46 against and 10 abstentions.
 It was read at the closing session of the 19th Palestinian National Council to a standing ovation.
 Upon completing the reading of the declaration, Arafat, as Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization assumed the title of "President of Palestine."
 In April 1989, the PLO Central Council elected Yasser Arafat the first President of the State of Palestine.
The Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization or Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization) is the leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization Executive Committee (PLO EC), the executive body of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), which was established in 1964.

Shafiq al-Hout also spelled Shafik al-Hut (Arabic: شفيق الحوت‎ ‎ ; 13 January 1932 – 2 August 2009) was a Palestinian politician and writer.
 Born in Jaffa, he and his family fled to Beirut at the onset of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
 There, al-Hout became a journalist at "al-Hawadth" newspaper.
 Using it as a platform, he founded the Palestine Liberation Front in 1961 and later became a founder of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1964.
 He remained a senior member of the organization, representing it in Lebanon and the United Nations General Assembly.

Israel–Palestine relations refers to the political, security, economical and other relations between Israel and Palestine (as well as with the preceding Palestinian National Authority and earlier Palestinian Liberation Organization).
 Israel and the PLO began to engage in the late 1980s and early 1990s in what became to be the Israeli–Palestinian peace process, culminated with the Oslo Accords in 1993.
 Shortly after, the Palestinian National Authority was established and during the next 6 years formed a network of economic and security connections with Israel, being referred to as a fully autonomous region with self-administration.
 In the year 2000, the relations severely deteriorated with the eruption of the Second Intifada – a rapid escalation of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
 The events calmed down in 2005, with only partial reconciliation and cease fire.
 The situation became more complicated with the split of the Palestinian Authority in 2007, the violent split of Fatah and Hamas factions, and Hamas' takeover of the Gaza Strip.
 The Hamas takeover resulted in a complete rift between Israel and the Palestinian faction in the Gaza Strip, cancelling all relations except limited humanitarian supply.
