Acknowledging that he has failed to enforce law and order and improve the economy in the Palestinian territories, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas nevertheless said on Tuesday that he has no intention to resign. "Many things have not been achieved since I was elected two years ago, especially in the field of economic prosperity and security, but I'm not thinking of resigning and I won't leave the job unless I die," Abbas was quoted by the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper as saying. "I will remain president until the end of my term." |
