RAMALLAH: In response to Netanyahu’s so-called day-after plan for Gaza, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for President Mahmoud Abbas, said today that “Gaza will only be part of the independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.”
He added, “Any plans to the contrary are destined to fail. Israel will not succeed in attempts to alter the geographic and demographic reality in the Gaza Strip.”
“If the world wants security and stability in the region, it must end the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories and recognize the independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital,” Abu Rudeineh stressed.
The Presidential spokesman continued, “Netanyahu’s proposed plans aim to perpetuate Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories and prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state.”
