7:36 am
a minister molecule. thank you for talking to him. just thank you mister minister, a sci fi between israel and hum us aimed at and in 11 days of intense booming on the besieged garza, the trip is now officially in place. could you give us more details about the deal that paved the way to the cease fire agreement? well, you know, it's very, very clear that you know, the more horror people in the world have seen regarding atrocities committed by its own people in gusto. the more cotton h, they were able to, to see on the division screens, the more they were compiled compelled to do something about it. there was, there was a time when, when the national communities started feeling the pressure that this situation can
7:37 am
be sustained. and something has to be done, voices around, started to shout loudly and their shouts, you know, it could, you know, in the security council echoed in the general assembly. so the way for the deal has been paid by death sentiment arising from the international community. i would say, you know, a combination of many things, you know, the toughness of the palestinians, you know, in gaza and the, how the palestinians in the us bank in is rosalie and inside israel has also responded, you know, with the same voice united as people so mr. foreign minister, you represent the palestinian authority and relevance of the palestinian authority is in question. so it appears it didn't have any rule in decision to go to war or negotiations to bring about aspire. what are you involved in negotiations?
7:38 am
look, you know, of course we, we are very responsible, you know, as an authority. we don't go to war. you know, if it's not being well calculated, we don't want to go to war with huge price, human price that we have to pay. we don't go to a war without consultation with all parties, you know, around. we don't take unilateral decision to go to work, but were you involved in the negotiations to bring about a ceasefire agreement? when of course, you know, no one could bypass the 30, and it was very important that for any sci fi to be achieved, it has to be also, you know, talk to policy leadership, you know, in drama, la. and so that the discussion was, was very clear, not only you know,
7:39 am
between the united nations, you know, and us, egypt and us cutter and us even united states on us. but also we kept our folks with our brothers in how most is this a ceasefire or an agreement. if it is a ceasefire, what will be the guarantee that the part is, will abide by when there are no guarantees or thought? no guarantees at all because you know, it's proclaim that you know the fire if you're lucky that they have taken that decision on their own. but at the same time, you know, no one could ignore that. all that egypt has played very important role that egypt has played and the role that to cut out has played not all the nations as place. now it is that it is so fragile because it depends. yeah. oh, don't we don't that the turn mechanisms isn't really possible to hold such
7:40 am
a fragile says, well, you know it's, it's happened in the past. because you know, as if we revisit the same story again and again and again and again, you know, 3456 times since this century. and every time you know, it depends on the will of the parties to, to abide by. you know, that's the fire. it's very clear that you know, today is israel is not interested in going beyond what has to be done in terms of the killing destination, you know, crimes committed atrocities, etc. i think the are some so i didn't know guarantee that such ones will not repeat again. why? seen dead? talking about the turn mechanisms present their bone of turkey and russian president with them and put in discuss the possibility of an international piece force in the occupied territories and gaza. do you think that it's
7:41 am
a wible option? what it is, it is a required option. it is a needed option. is it really a viable option? this is something that really requires to be studied. but yes, we have been asking for a long time for it and it's some force of protection to the policy people. there was a decision taken by the general assembly few years back was left to the secretary general, united nations to determine the ways how to do that. did not go anywhere. now, you know, if the present or the gun is talking about this idea, i will encourage him to continue talking about it. because you know, it will serve the interest of the people by providing protection to the policy people from 1st the atrocities committed by the israel you for putting force against innocent palestinians. mr. for the minister,
7:42 am
it will start with depending eruptions of families in shift era neighborhood is this set of ocean still there and what do you plan to do as palestinian authority? look, you know, after this is fight, we go back to the situation and he, you know, and we remember i'll remind ourselves of exactly where do we have start is the threat to evict families from the neighborhood, the future off the further disintegration by israeli. all the soldiers answer to those of the holiest place, you know, lock from us, and he's your result, him, you know, violating the supper school of the holy places. and right now it is time to remember that this is really the origin of everything. it is very important to make the focus on jerusalem. jerusalem is where everything starts and what everything in
7:43 am
. that's very important. you know, we have to talk about is really a policies of trying to. not only does it create a lot of mosque, but changing the character of the holy places, the connector of this occupied city of, of is using them. and it's time right now for the international community since they have shown cleared, interests to be involved, to focus on the core issue. what's your assessment of the out of leaders reactions toward the israeli violations? is it true that most out of countries stop sending financial contributions to you? i do believe that, you know, the arabs have shown clear commitment was that suspected for the policy? yes. yes. the last extraordinary meeting of for that up 40 mrs. have shown commitment leadership and, you know,
7:44 am
support of the policy on cause. the fact that we had now about 6 or 7 out of 40 menaces, attending the general assembly session. the special general session session on palestine, you know, is also a reflection of the, the simulation of their support for the course of police time and for taking it very you to stand against the israeli, our processes and crimes committed against policy. people important thing is, you know, how to proceed. lake is, it is really very important. is it true that the most out of companies has stops and in financial contributions to well, you know, this is really something that has to go back to the previous us administration. you know, it's very clear when present from decided to cut all financial contribution to the policy authority. you know, it seems that they also have asked the not
7:45 am
pantries, who used to provide financial support for the city and people also to stop that. so yes, they accept that what i, what i would say, that's what the last 2 years or 3 years. we did not get any financial support and that additionally, we used to get from the other countries. we did not get that. there is a new business solution in the usa, so bite and 3 sion almost without exception to all of that crisis that each of the statement referred to israel's right to self defense. so how would you characterize u. s. role in the latest crisis? do you see at the ports or from the policies taken by the comp administration? well, look, you know, we disagree on this particular matter. you know, that israel has any right to self defense,
7:46 am
because this is really not right against international law. and buying power has right to self defense, people under occupation, they have the right to self defense. we totally disagree with this, but that doesn't mean that doesn't mean that the by the announcements ration has taken completely, you know, the sides of israel know by the station has, has tried its best. and we have seen that in the last couple of days to reach the fire. they have used this diplomacy through egypt and united nations. and the you know, the possibility of out of countries resuming their financial support or contribution to again, i don't know, it depends. it depends on how it got ups, you know, will you define that definite lack of the financial support is having
7:47 am
a remarkable impact on the functioning capacity off d p a. so in that sense, there's only, you know, we are for about 4 to 5 months. we were not able to pay more than 50 percent of the salaries to the public servants, and this is the reflection of our deep financial crisis. absolutely. so we have been talking about the piece of court. there is a growing sense among many people that the piece of course such as was the course you signed with israel or responsible for expansion or illegal settlements? do you still think it's possible to establish the palestinian faith under the current israel government? absolutely. absolutely. i think this is really the beginning of everything, you know, because now what really brought us to speak about the policy in the state. it's
7:48 am
because, you know, we established reality is on the ground. we established a policy and authority that never were there before. and this policy, no authority started to have to present the people in the territory and to have relations internationally. this exposure has really helped very much through this agreement. we were able to bring back about 800000 palestinians from the s for as part of the right to return. so that's important. so at this stage you think that the court is still relevant and it's possible to continue talks with nathan. yeah, i was on the screen. i don't what to do to be put in a situation where i find myself defending or slow? no, no, no, no, please. i would say i'm saying that you know,
7:49 am
oh slow was at that time has served the palestinian was well by allowing us to have a base to start developing. you know, our dream to having your state without that phase, we were not being able to reach where we are here today, mr. for mr. you live in a fort in march, to take the pallets, and in case against is read away nations in shift around dra neighborhood and in jerusalem to the i t c. and what was it fruitless despite a lower media campaign or will the later they'll opens and killings of many palestinians in westbank in jerusalem and in god's up how easy waving, therefore, to bring israel to some international justice by the i c. c. we believe right now that with the decision of the i see to open an official investigation after 5 or 6 years of preliminary examination. when they came to the conclusion that they have
7:50 am
enough evidence is to show that israel has committed great violations of international law, tantamount to war crimes and crimes against humanity for us. that's very important, very important, really to highlight the fact that you know, the policies dickens that have been waiting for justice for so many years now they could really have this partial justice through those to see and israel, who always thought that enjoy impunity from being investigated. or prosecuted. now the eyes to see will say, no, it cannot be treated above the law is right. has to be accountable for the crimes that they have really and that's why you know, we do believe that i see is an opportunity that we have to use to the
7:51 am
fullest, to the max and most in order for partial justice, you know, to be achieved for us that's the very important for the 1st time these arabs are seen to join forces with their palestinian federal and not going only for the protests against israel, but also to the limit of launching attacks. how do you read this in the way the context of what has, has happened? if israel thinks that it was able, after so many years, to separate the policy on people between the policies, inside the green line, the palestinians in is euros along the policy. and there was found the policy as in gaza. the, the current events have shown that israel was wrong, that the policy people are united. one people, why can't administrations also do the same? when are they going to see a fatter? how much the confusion? well, you know, we are hopeful, we are hopeful look,
7:52 am
we should turn every situation into an opportunity. now with what has really happened, we should really contemplate possibilities for approach ma, between how much many sees that the palestinian official leaders are not the drivers of this movement of people. but rather they are being driven by it. would you agree with that? no, no, no, so absolutely not. this is, this is, this is the assessment of the money that you have mentioned. i don't know how many they are, you know, and how few they are. i don't care. i don't give, this is really spontaneous moment that maybe right now people are being taken by what they have seen through, you know, your television screen. but at the end of the day, when you wake up and you see the reality and you decisions, you should not be populous. you have to be realistic in terms of decisions as it either and to pace realities and to pick decisions sometimes are heart difficult,
7:53 am
but you have to take them and they'll put the leadership out there for these leadership for these decisions to be taken. prison mom with a bus issue. the presidential decree postponing the may 22nd elections to the end of july and accusing israel of not let in the palestinians in east jerusalem to anticipate the election. so can you assure the palestine is that there will be election on july 31st? no, no on july. why? why july, you know, as long as we are having a problem in including our people in issues and to participate in the actions. we have to keep, but i setting for the right to participate and to vote in the policy. and many policy and jurors might take it all part of the policy and people they have the right to vote. it's not only though the people in the bank on guys who can vote the
7:54 am
people in the east jerusalem, they have the right to vote, and we have to fight for their right to vote. the moment that we are guaranteed by the international community that their right is guaranteed on the vote, then the president won't hesitate one minute to sign it for his actual degree calling for parliamentary electra. mister, for the minister. nope, had athenian under 37 has taken part in and in national elections. so we don't elections. do you agree that a less than the issue will be returning the p a and if the elections are delayed again, part of your concern that it will cause a great this appointment among palestinians, particularly among young palestinians whom hope for that it is a ty for a change through the elections. elections are not the only way to express democracy institution. and you know, we are looking forward, you know,
7:55 am
ways how to achieve that. the president is not running away from his obligation to hold elections at the end of the day. he was the one who initiated holding 4 elections and he is the one who decided on the 22nd of me to the left. but no one who? no. so the like no, no, no. the 22nd of me put this bean 22nd of july. but the 22nd of october, and then you know, your, your question would have been totally different. so if you know what, what if he decided to hold elections on the 22nd of october instead of this payment? what i wanted to say that, you know, we are looking for, you know, the right of all palestinians, including it is yours elements to have elections, to cast their vote in elections the moment that we have, that's guaranteed,
7:56 am
then we, we go for elections. mr. for the minister, many believe that the palestinian authority is using the the, the jerusalem issue as an excuse. look, if jerusalem is rosa, love is not important for somebody else's. if the casting a vote, you know, in westbound coating does that is more important. but you've done that up and down and then we have a serious problem. you see this problem, you know, look, if you ask b as the, palestinian to to, to decide to choose between holding elections and between, you know, protecting euros that i'm and keeping euros l m. i will, i will decide for yourself 1st, 2nd and 3rd. now that issue is not about elections. their issue is the political battle. are we going to fight for euro's a limb, to be an integral part of the policy and to the, to the,
7:57 am
the capital of the state of police times or not. so mr for minister now come back to the relevance of p a. the israeli permanent member to the u. n. just said that this war is between israel and house. so it seems that how much is becoming the forefront for the palestinian cows? how will this affect the political dynamic in palestine and we'll be able to stay relevant. look, you know, you are asking the question as to the wrong, the wrong people you are sending me, you know, for sensitive and you answer. that's how i feel your bill, a question on what the israeli has said. come on and you asked me to respond to that. who cares about what the representative in the you and have said, i'm in shooting my own action. this is really how we should see things with respect . are there any playing cards left in the hands given the off brand,
7:58 am
the us and western government stance towards the palestinians registers? i think right now the unity is there. we would like to see that she's sustained maintain, then we have to talk about, you know, the human is getting assistance after that. obviously we go to what you have to ask in the beginning to go on to focus again on the core issue. the pose issue of the whole problem, jerusalem, what are we going to do about euros? and then about this prolonged occupation, what we are going to do about it. now we feel that there is an international opinion that started to develop to emerge that they are telling israel enough is enough. we have to on these was the atmosphere in order to move into a political reality that will open up for us opportunity to move ahead to
7:59 am
patients, to in the suffering of the policy. people realize self determination, freedom, independence for the people policy for a minister, yet america. thank you for talking to thank you. a weekly critique of the stories hitting the headlines. the news media have been left to sort through nick messaging on a quite complex story from mainstream to street journal is been main objective, is to get beat me to send it to the wall and what's going on, exposing real world threats to objectivity. often about the return to moscow and neck and tunnels and people were arrested. the listening post covers the way the news is covered on the jersey. we understand the differences and similarities of cultures across the world. so no matter what,
8:00 am
i'll just walk around will bring you the news and current affairs that matter to you. oh i medicine use return to what's left of their homes is a c 5 between israel and homer holds in gaza. we still need a 2 state solution. it is the only answer joe biden says, tuesday, the only way to peace in the middle east that he pledges to organize help to rebuild the.
