📅 2 July 1921 📍 Palestine

Organizations/movement: Palestine Arab Delegation; Arab Executive Committee. Action: The delegation pursued meetings and representations in London during 1921–1922, seeking political rights and revision of British policy. Result: Talks did not obtain abandonment of the national-home commitment. The delegation ultimately returned without the sought settlement. Impact / interpretation: The experience exposed the unequal relationship between a petitioning national leadership and the power controlling the Mandate. It also created an international record of Palestinian demands.
