2010-11-23 |
(KUNA) -- Head of the negotiations' department in the Paleostinian Liberation Organization Saeb Erekat on Monday has accused Israel of being responsible of halting direct negotiations between the Israelis and Paleostinians. During his meeting with US Deputy Envoy for Middle East David Hill, Erekat said that negotiations would only resume once Israel halts all its settlement activities. He said that the time now is of decisions and not negotiations, adding that the aim of the grinding of the peace processor according to the international road map is to end the Israeli occupation, which began in 1967, and the establishment of a Paleostinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. He added that other arrangements should also include the final status issues, topped by the issue of refugees in accordance with the international legitimacy resolutions. |
