| 2015-05-10 |
| [EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Dr. Nabil Sha'ath, the Chief negotiator and a member of the Central Committee of the Paleostinian Fatah movement has disclosed to Zaman al-Wasl that all attempts made by the Paleostinian Authority to save Yarmouk camp for Paleostinian refugees in Damascus, or to find a solution for its crisis and break the siege have failed, which points out to a hidden conspiracy against the Paleostinians in exile, like what happened before in camps of Sabra and Shatila, and Nahr barid. “No one ever can imagine what is happening in Yarmouk,” Sha’ath explained that Syrian regime is not concerned in Ahmad Majdalani’s mediation to find a solution for Yarmouk Camp for Palestinian people, as the regime insists on its responsibility for the Palestinians inside the camp and rejects any interference or any help from external forces. The Palestinian negotiator revealed that no external Palestinian force can interfere in breaking siege imposed on Yarmouk Camp, and the matter is out of the Palestinian Authority's hands, even there is no powerful Palestinian existence in Syria can be relied on. “From the beginning, we tried to exclude ourselves from the Syrian crisis, but the crisis reached us and got us involved.” Sha’ath expressed his anger toward the Arabs’ attitude from the Palestinian crisis and what is happening in the Palestinian camps in Syria, as they just keep watching. The Palestinian Cabinet Minister mentioned that the Palestinian Authority has communicated with different organizations for aid and relief, but still, no one can have the control on aid once it reached to Syria, as regime controls everything enters Yarmouk camp. “However, we had some cooperation from Sweden and Norway to grant asylum for more Palestinian refugees.” In the end, Sha’ath told Zaman al-Wasl that no one able to provide anything or any help to Palestinian people, even the Palestinian Authority was unable to give any help, and he thinks that Yarmouk crisis is similar to what happened in Tal-Zatar camp. He appealed to Arabs to intervene to stop Palestinian tragedy. |
