President Mahmoud Abbas has announced that the leadership has decided to suspend the agreements signed with the Israeli side and to set up a committee to carry out this, in accordance with the decision of the Central Council.
"We will not bow to the dictates and impose the fait accompli on the ground with brute force, specifically Jerusalem, and all that the occupation state is doing is illegitimate and illegitimate," the president said after a meeting of the leadership held Thursday evening at the presidential headquarters in Ramallah.
He added: "Our hands have been and are still extended to a just, comprehensive and lasting peace, but this does not mean that we accept the status quo or surrender to the measures of the occupation. We will not give up and will not live with the occupation, nor will we agree with the" deal of the century. "Palestine and Jerusalem are not for sale and barter, Real estate in a real estate company ".
"There is no peace, no security, no stability in our region and the world without our people enjoying their full rights, and no matter how long or short the despicable occupation will be defeated and our future state will be left."
The President expressed thanks to all the friendly and brotherly countries of the world who stand by the Palestinian people and their just cause in international forums, but we want practical steps and the implementation of UN resolutions on the ground, even once.
"The time has come to implement the Egypt-sponsored Cairo 2017 agreement. We do not want to return to the tragedy of the Moscow meeting when Hamas refused to recognize the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and it has been in contact with Israel and America," he said. "My hand is out for reconciliation and the time has come to be more serious."
The text of the President´s speech reads as follows:
In the name of of Allah the Merciful
"He is authorized to fight those who have been wronged, and Allah is their victory for those who have been driven out of their homes without right." Great truth of God.
Our great Palestinian people in the homeland and the Diaspora, peace be upon you and God´s mercy and blessings,
In the light of the Israeli occupation of dozens of our homes in East Jerusalem, the capital of the eternal state of Palestine, and the displacement of hundreds of innocent citizens from Sur Baher and others who have become homeless in a clear Israeli violation of international law. Among them, which can only be classified as ethnically cleansing and a crime against humanity can not be tolerated - although the issue of ethnic cleansing ended all over the world after South Africa, but it remained in Israel under American auspices.
In the name of our martyrs, wounded, prisoners and the suffering of our people, who live under the longest occupation in our contemporary history, in the land of the occupied State of Palestine and in the name of the Palestinian refugees everywhere and their right to return to their homes, we say clearly that we will not submit to dictates and impose a fait accompli on the ground by force, The rest of the cities and villages are no less sacred than Jerusalem, "Sobhan, who captives his servant at night from the Holy Mosque to the Aqsa Mosque, which we have blessed." All of Palestine is a blessed land.
We say clearly: We will not yield to the dictates and impose the status quo on the ground with brute force, specifically in Jerusalem, and all the actions of the occupying state are illegal and null and void.
The American administration, through its biased policies and its attempts to change international references by passing the century´s deal, provides cover for Israeli violations against our people, which we have rejected and will continue to reject in accordance with our commitment to international law and the resolutions of international legitimacy and the interest of our people and its rights. Israeli and American alike.
No matter how long or short, this despicable occupation will be defeated from our land and our future state will be conquered, God willing. There is no peace, no security and no stability in our region and the whole world without the full enjoyment of the Palestinian people´s rights.
In this context, we reaffirm once again that we have not delegated anyone to speak on behalf of the State of Palestine and the Palestine Liberation Organization, the legitimate and sole representative of our Palestinian people, the legitimate and the sole. We have no partner, the Arab nation and our stakeholders.
The Israeli occupation authority has decided to deny all the obligations it has incurred in accordance with the agreements signed with it. It continues to kill Palestinian citizens, arrest them, demolish their houses and confiscate their lands. In addition, the roads are closed with hundreds of barriers and the walls that cut off the Palestinian land. The whole world rejected it. This "apartheid", which ended 30 years ago from all over the world, is still here in America, and finally the piracy of Palestinian money.
On the other hand, the settlers, supported by the occupying state, continue to attack the lives and property of our people in their towns and villages, our Christian and Islamic sanctuaries, especially the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Resurrection, which can not be tolerated. Our people must not be silent about it, and our people must stop it by all legitimate means. It must stand in the way of anyone who wants to attack us. Enough is enough.
Our hands have been and are still extended to peace - because we believe in a comprehensive, just and lasting peace, but this does not mean in any way that we accept the continuation of the status quo or surrender to the policies and procedures of occupation. I reiterate that we will not give up, we will not live with the occupation, The century or the slap of the century or the deal of shame - all names for one name -, Palestine and Jerusalem is not for sale and barter and not a real estate deal in a real estate company.
While we thank all those who stand by us from the countries and peoples of the world for the attainment of our rights, we call on the international community to shoulder its responsibilities in deterring the Israeli aggression against our people and ending its occupation of our State by implementing its decisions.
Yesterday there was a meeting of the Security Council, 14 countries spoke in a language and America spoke in a language alone, and Greenblatt comes out to say: Palestinians are isolated, I want to know who is isolated. Are we or are they? Are they in front of 14 countries or we and 14 other countries. We have 135 countries (the Group of 77 and China) and 140 countries. Who is in isolation? Are we the mother of America? Thank you for your position on the vision of the two states, the occupation and the 1967 borders, but we want practical steps, even once, to implement the UN resolutions, whether in the Security Council, there are 86 resolutions, choose any resolution and implement it. Or resolutions of the General Assembly 700 resolutions any decision taken and implemented, but unfortunately did not implement any decision, and at the same time talking about international legitimacy and international justice, I think this is unacceptable in the twenty-first century.
We say to our brothers in Gaza: The time has come for the implementation of the 2017 agreement. You are the ones who started the dialogue, and Egypt, thankfully, nurtured this dialogue and the Arabs all agree to this agreement 2017. We agree and apply it when we say we want to confront Israel with all its strength. Where are you? and with who? I understand the organizations that are involved in the PLO, but where are you? We do not want to go back to the tragedy of the Moscow meeting when you refused to recognize the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and to be consistent with Israel and America. Because the whole world is talking about two states and the whole world is in agreement with Resolution 2334 and the whole world is in agreement with the resolutions of the General Assembly of the State of Palestine since we got an observer member. You say no to the PLO. Who do you stand with? I still have a hand for reconciliation and I want reconciliation and I have an interest in reconciliation. But to stay that way and talk about side effects, subtopics, peripheral things, I think it´s time to be more serious.
In the light of what took place in the meeting of the leadership today of deliberations, and in light of the insistence of the occupation authority on the denial of all the signed agreements and their obligations, we announce the decision of the leadership to stop the agreements signed with the Israeli side and start setting mechanisms - starting tomorrow - This is in accordance with the decisions of the Palestinian Central Council.
In the name of God the Most Gracious the Most Merciful: (O ye who believe! Be patient and persevere and connect and fear Allah, that ye may prosper).
