Bethlehem – Ma’an – President Mahmoud Abbas called on the Arab League on Tuesday to denounce Hamas for allegedly delaying a deal that would restore Palestinian political unity.
“The Arab League now needs to take a stand on this. The Egyptians have announced clearly that they cannot show any more patience after Fatah expressed willingness to conclude a deal according to the Egyptian plan, while Hamas refused,” Abbas said.
Abbas recalled a decision by Arab League foreign ministers last year that any side that holds up a unity deal would be denounced by all Arab states.
The Fatah leader made these remarks during a news conference at the presidential headquarters in Cairo, where Abbas held talks with Egyptian counterpart Hosni Mubarak on the unity issue.
