RAMALLAH, October 25, 2011 (WAFA) - Fatah's central committee member and Commissioner of International Relations, Nabil Shaath said in a press release Tuesday that Fatah rejects any proposal or political solutions to resume negotiations that are not based on utterly freezing settlements.
He said that resuming negotiations necessitates complete commitment to the peace process requirements; an actual and complete halting of settlement activities, recognizing the 1967 borders as terms of reference for negotiations and ending the siege on the Gaza Strip.
He considered that continuing settlement activities represents a flagrant challenge to the world and abort the international efforts aiming to revive the negotiations again.
He pointed out that the international Quartet meetings, separately, with the Palestinians and Israelis will not be successful in light of the Israeli destruction of any chance to achieve peace.
He added, “The Israeli government, with its radical right-wing Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman, represents the main obstacle for peace. The international community must put real pressure on Tel Aviv to put a limit to its racist and bloody policy against the Palestinians.”
He added, “Israel practically does not want to stop settlement activities nor end the siege on the Gaza Strip, and practices incitement policy against President Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian leadership. Israel wants formal negotiations through which it continues stealing our land and expanding settlements.”Palestine News & Info Agency - WAFA
