until this moment. to get. negotiations with the israelis and as a result of the negotiations the militants overcome sin state. should pick place so states will come as a result of negotiations of an agreement between israel and palestine this is it now since last september. israelis have been avoiding. committing themselves into serious negotiations they have refused the request of the international community to seize and to stop settlement activities as international relief condition for the resumption of negotiation and since then you know we did not have any kind of negotiations with the israelis so our position is that by supplying bush we should have you can see

a state as was promised to us by present but up obama by the international community by the court date everybody else is we will be ready as palestinians in building on secure and so you know september should yield to the palestinian state either through. negotiation with israelis and this is really our preferred choice. or if that's not the case you know we should seek. you under commission through you know asking. you to do so. minister binyamin netanyahu is a partner for peace. making i don't think so. you know because you know he did so he said it from the beginning even before he was elected as prime minister during his election campaign he was very clear he said no to a consensus state no to. withdrawal from the occupied territories.

was really very clear yes to settlement activities. so he was very clear from the beginning. in his position he campaigned with the. platform. on syrian state platform and when he tried to build his own position he built it based on these. important elements and so i cannot but to take into consideration what he has he said how he has performed what are his policies and actions and you know also to judge him on his deeds since you know since he took office until today he did not show. any kind of sign of willingness to be a partner to peace with the palestinians people maintaining his coalition

government here over negotiating with the palestinians and he preferred to continue with the settlement activities against having. peace with the palestinians and so if that's the case then you know yes we lack a partner on the israeli side in the battle community has been very clear on this we have heard. statements coming from international leaders about that i think this is really the conclusion that. most of the international leaders have really reached we have heard. a telephone. call that he had with merkel recently when she told him very clearly that. he did not do anything really to progress the negotiations and he has to be blamed if that's really the case then you know i think you know he has to know that he has to take responsibilities for

the lack of negotiations all and for the lack of any kind of progress in the negotiations what considering all the variables assuming you do go to the united nations in september are you not concerned that the united states will veto the whole nation. if we are going through the united nations to seek an ignition you know we have to study that. situation very well but you know to tell you the truth. from now until september we have to keep all options open we should not even close the door on the resumption of negotiations so this is really should be always there and we have to be ready we are ready you know to be involved in the negotiations immediately twenty four hours a day to commit ourselves into a process of negotiations that should lead before september to peace agreement that will allow people the same state to be established next visit a visit. if that's the be the case the international community will find that the

palestinians are ready to be fully believing gaged are we expecting the police to do something about it we hear. rumors that you know president barack obama might propose an idea there are a certain resumption of contacts by the american the station you know to to see. you know if there is a possibility to resume negotiations under what kind of conditions etc so these are really possibilities you know we have to complete that we have to keep the open as an option and a viable option under review to see you know how things will go we have said if we . give ourselves into this these negotiations before september and really september while we are still negotiating we will continue to go in during september and beyond september this is really very clear which means that you know negotiations is our priority before anything else but you know these negotiations should really

have a very clear terms of reference and this is really very important what are our terms of reference first of all that in a should be based on the sixty seven borders this is very important that you know the objective should be the creation of the same state next of the state of israel . is the most of them should be the capital of the concerned state was there was a couple of those who state that you know while we are doing this israel should really afraid from any kind of unilateral action including you know settlement activities this is really very useful to you know if these terms of of acknowledged them accepted by the by israel as they are you could depleted by the cooperate then you know we are really really to engage in these kind of negotiations with the israeli side we are not going to take any kind of premature actions now but we will prepare ourselves for september and then of course it's not going to be us and the international community will ask on our behalf in all such recognition by the

international community to is not going to be even thought of action by the palestinians it's going to be collective action by the international community because they consider the international community that you know this solving the palestinian problem is over due september should be the deadline for a political statement which says that summit comes to mean a person so far will direct the united nations and the u.s. to vetoes the notion what next. of course you know the possibility that the americans would veto. such a decision is there and if that's going to be the case in iran you know complete what are really the options you know we don't have that many options very limited options one of them is going to really to go to somebody and really asking this on a sunday to meet under the united for peace and seek international recognition for the state of palestine if not the case it's possible that you know we go to go and i think. the decision about the right of the presidents to have even the same state

these are you know one of the options we are contemplating and continue completing before between now and it's a. promise is the single biggest recipient of european aid not. paying for the palestinian struggle. curse because you know we are in the backyards of europe and the instability here will affect also stability. within europe. huge minorities of people who live in europe. muslims are. also. you know they have shown their support and solidarity with the palestinian cause. not to mention also. you know economic

interest you know the geopolitics of the situation what it means you know palestine and the whole region to the world specially to europe in terms of oil and gas these are just you know you can be nation off for reasons why you should be interested why united states of america should be interested why. why your question should be interested why he at any country should be interested about about the situation here and why south africa is interested why you find out that you know india pakistan bangladesh is interesting why. chile is interested why make sequels in first thing each one in all sees a situation from different perspectives but you know each one feels that you know they have the obligation under responsibility to take action underneath to seek justice for the honest ignorance so thank you very much for joining us here on r.t.
