Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "has been revealed in his declarations and behavior once again to be someone who refuses to conduct a peace process".
In an interview with the Israeli Arab newspaper Kul Alarab Abu Rudeineh said Netanyahu "has chosen to crash into the wall of international law, the Road Map, and the Arab initiative". He also accused the prime minister of causing the former US special envoy to the Middle East, George Mitchell, to resign. (Elior Levy)
