GAZA, April 28
(Xinhuanet) -- Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath said on Wednesday that
Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Suleiman will visit the Palestinian territories
and meet leader Yasser Arafat.
Shaath told Al-Hayat Al-Jadida daily that Suleiman's visit will fall after the meeting of the international quartet due
on May 4 in New York.
Shaath said that Palestinians and
Egyptians are committed to the international resolutions regarding the
Palestinian issue, adding that they oppose the Israeli unilateral plan of
disengagement from Palestinians.
"We will work on activating
the roadmap peace plan and its implementation through timetables and mechanisms
and defy all the Israeli threats launched against President Arafat," Shaath
stated.
The Palestinian foreign minister said that
Palestinians would seek a UN resolution on enhancing the rights of Palestinians
against the backdrop that US President George W. Bush gave unprecedented
endorsement to the Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's disengagement
plan. Enditem |
