PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) announced on Tuesday, 19 Cheshvan 5774 that he will not tolerate IDF forces in the Jordan Valley in the final status agreement. The PA leader explained that from his perspective, this is a deal breaker and Israeli insistence of a military presence in the area will lead to a breakdown in the ongoing talks.
In other recent interviews the PA (Palestinian Authority) leader stated that eastern areas of Yerushalayim must serve as the capital of the new State of Palestine together with all areas taken by Israel in the June 1967 Six Day War.
