オスロ合意
Following on from PLO's forced exile from Lebanon, their power base was diminished and PLO as an organisation was forced to be further away from the people it sought to fight for. The Lebanese period can in fact be seen as a time of no real development in PLO's desire to achieve statehood, in the main because of its being marred by additional conflicts. Throughout this period in time PLO were beginning to accept the concept of a two-state solution and move towards the kind of agreements that would mark the Oslo I Accord, but diplomatic processes were hindered by the conflict. PLO itself as an organisation was split at times and trust between political groups was minimal.
