Egypt raises possibility of new Paleo election
2006-10-06
Since the last one turned out so well.
CAIRO - Egyptian President for Life Hosni Mubarak raised the possibility of a snap Palestinian election to overcome a deepening crisis since Hamas’s rise to power, according to remarks published on Thursday. “Palestinian efforts could lead to early elections of the Palestinian Legislative Council to overcome the crisis between Fatah and Hamas,” Mubarak said in an interview with Al-Usba magazine carried by the state news agency MENA.

It quoted Mubarak as saying “Egypt has made major efforts toward forming a (Palestinian) national unity government but these efforts have come up against inter-Palestinian civil war differences.”
