Qurei: Israeli Plans Wrecking Chances of a Palestinian State
 Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qorei accused Israel yesterday of destroying the chances of a viable Palestinian state by expanding its settlements around Jerusalem as he held a symbolic Cabinet meeting on the outskirts of the city. Qorei said that Israelâs settlement drive and its construction of a separation barrier in the region were leaving Palestinians living in the east of the city in âghettosâ.âAll these things do not leave any room for the creation of a viable Palestinian state,â Qorei told reporters after the meeting. âThe Palestinian state should be built on the borders of 1967 and the Palestinians will not accept any state less than that.â Posted by: Fred 2005-08-29 |
