PLO: We expected Obama to support Palestinian liberty
Yasser Abed Rabbo, secretary general of the Palestine Liberation Organization's Executive Committee, said following Barack Obama's UN speech that the US president's statements on the freedom of the Arab people are far removed from his call to resume negotiations between the Palestinians and Israel.
"We expected to hear that the liberty of the Palestinian people is the key to the Arab spring," he said. "The entire region deserves liberty." (Elior Levy)
