Palestinian Minister of Interior Abdel Razzak Al-Yahia asked Estonia this spring to help to develop e-country and e-government of the Middle East autonomous area.

Initially, Estonia helps with a five-day training but later the help may include conception and development plan, Eesti Päevaleht writes.

According to Arvo Ott, the executive director of eGovernance Academy, Palestinians aren’t the first ones to ask Estonia’s help. eGovernance Academy has been operating for a longer time already in Serbia, Macedonia, Albania, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia, Georgia and Moldova.
