Erekat: Netanyahu must understand that PR is not policy

The Palestinian delegation to the UN is working at full force in its efforts to achieve a majority for recognition of a Palestinian state. Senior Fatah official Saeb Erekat, who is currently in New York with the Palestinian diplomats, said that the invitation to meet with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, should be taken with a grain of salt.

Speaking to Ynet, Erekat criticized Netanyahu, saying: "The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu needs to understand that PR is not policy." (Elior Levy)
