Palestinians have not lost hope for peace, but will never accept ‘temporary solutions,’ President Abbas tells UN
In his address to the Assembly’s annual general debate, president Abbas declared that “there is no way to defeat terrorism and extremism, no way to achieve security and stability in our region without ending the Israeli occupation of Palestine and ensuring the freedom and independence of the Palestinian people.”
“Our hand remains outstretched for making peace,” he continued, but noted that the question that keeps presenting itself over and over again is if there is any leadership in Israel that desires to make a true peace and “that will abandon the mentality of hegemony, expansionism and colonization, and that will recognize the rights of our people and will end the historic injustice inflicted upon them?”
