MIDDLE EAST: PNA, WITHOUT OWN STATE INSTABILITY WILL REMAIN
(ANSAmed) - RENDE (COSENZA), OCTOBER 24 - The Palestinian
people are "asking for a fair and total peace", which can only
be reached "through the proclamation of a sovereign State, with
Jerusalem as its capital and within the territory occupied in
1967. This is the basis for "peaceful coexistence with the
Israeli people". Otherwise, "the region will encounter yet
further problems and will remain a cause of instability in the
world".
These are the words of the Palestinian National Authority's
Vice-Minister for Youth and Sport, Musa Abu Zaid, who was
speaking today in Rende at the Euro-Mediterranean conference on
the charity sector, which is linked to the 2008 Rexpò forum on
social responsibility. "The Palestinian people", added the
PNA's government representative, "have played an active and
guiding role in the resistance of the occupation of Israel,
acting in the love of liberty and independence.
Consequently, they have paid a high price in terms of
martyrs, wounded people, and those who have been arrested and
expelled, just as they have suffered the destruction of
economic, social and educational infrastructures, which has had
a serious impact on the younger generations, in particular".
