Abbas: We want peace with Israel, but opposition also option

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said during the Fatah congress being held in Bethlehem that the Palestinian people is interested in peace with Israel, but noted that "opposition" remains an option from his perspective.

 

"Even though peace is our choice, we reserve the right to opposition. It is legitimate according to international law," said Abbas. The "opposition" is an expression used by Palestinians to describe the entire struggle against Israel, both armed and silent. (Ali Waked)
