Mahmoud Abbas, the 90-year-old Palestinian Authority president and Fatah chairman, continues to consolidate power through decrees and party mechanisms amid persistent questions over succession. In October 2025 he issued a constitutional declaration designating PLO Executive Committee vice president Hussein al-Sheikh as interim replacement for up to 90 days if the presidency is vacated, while a May 2026 Fatah congress re-elected Abbas chairman and elevated his son Yasser to the Central Committee. Most recently, on June 14-15 2026 Abbas decreed legislative elections for November 2026 and presidential elections for early 2027 without indicating whether he would run. These moves occur against a backdrop of the nonagenarian leader’s long tenure, internal Fatah maneuvering, and limited popular legitimacy for potential successors, shaping trader assessments of the timing and process of any leadership transition.
