RAMALLAH, Aug. 2 (Xinhuanet) -- The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Tuesday called on Israel to coordinate its intended Gaza withdrawal with the Palestinian National Authority (PNA).

    The PLO executive committee made the call in a statement issued after its meeting late Monday in the West Bank city of Ramallah on     the Israeli withdrawal.

    The statement said that "the Israeli side has to completely coordinate with the responsible Palestinian sides to insure that the Israeli pulling out from all areas, crossings and settlements would be according to a specific and known plan."

    The constructions that would be left in the evacuated Israeli settlements would be serving the Palestinian people and the PLO executive committee would allow any side to use these constructionsfor private interests, said the statement.

    The PLO committee stressed the role of the Palestinian Highest Committee to follow up the national and Islamic factions in following the implementation of the Israeli withdrawal. Enditem
