From the interview with Al-Aqsa
Arab states have halted financial support for the Palestinian Authority following American pressure, Hamas deputy chief of staff Salah Aruri claimed last night (Friday) in an interview with al-Aqsa.
The words were broadcast while a rocket that landed in Israeli territory was launched from the Gaza Strip.
In his opening remarks, the senior member of the terrorist organization said that "the Palestinian issue has been central throughout history, but recently we have reached a stage where there is a desire to eliminate the issue. Of course the Israelis outline the parameters for this. The Trump administration implements it with all its ties."
Accordingly, Aruri described the goals of the Century Plan as eliminating the Palestinian issue and making Israel a legitimate part of the Middle East.
He threatened that "this thing will not pass without resolving the issue."
Against this background, the senior official of the Politburo noted that "Israel is not willing to pay a price for the demand of the international community or the Palestinian right. The Palestinian, Arab and Islamic right is all of Palestine. On a state within the borders of 67 and its capital al-Quds, the occupation does not want to commit to it. (Israel) wants a solution that will establish its control of Jerusalem in particular and most of the West Bank. That vision. "
"First of all, Israel has accelerated construction in the settlements, especially in Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank," Aruri said. "It has continued to impose the siege on the Gaza Strip to continue the endless suffering. "
Another step within the framework of the Century According to Aruri is the normalization of relations with the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain while "skipping the Palestinian issue."
A senior Hamas official claimed that the United States had exerted heavy pressure on Arab countries.
He said, "Of course the Arab states have the Arab initiative which states that when a Palestinian state is established within the borders of 67 and its capital is Jerusalem, relations between the entity and the Arab and Islamic region will be normalized. ".
Aruri said in an interview that the Palestinian Authority, the PLO and Fatah are under great pressure because they are part of the international and regional system.
In contrast, Ismail Haniyeh's deputy noted that "Hamas is a resistance movement. The United States or the international system have no means to put pressure on us. The siege was forced on us and we are in a daily struggle in the Gaza Strip with the occupation. F. - S.K.) or through the International Quartet or all that ".
Aruri mentioned that the United States had cut off financial aid to UNRWA and claimed that it had pressured states to act like it. He added that "some Arab states have frozen their commitments to the Palestinian people, both to the PA and to the PLO, in an American decision. "They came to the brothers in the PA and informed them that 'we will not pay you anything after this day'."
In response to an interview with former Saudi official Bender bin Sultan in which he attacked the Palestinians, Aruri said it was "part of an attempt to bring about a violation of the Palestinian position and to press for it."
In doing so, the senior official referred to the opposition of the Palestinian factions to the plan of the century and emphasized that his organization refused to enter into dialogue with the Americans.
Beyond that, the senior Hamas official revealed that during the dialogue between the terrorist organization and Fatah in Istanbul, "popular resistance" was agreed in the territories of Judea and Samaria against the background of the normalization agreements and the century plan. However, Aruri added that .
