PARIS, April 21, 2011 (WAFA) - The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the Palestinians are now more than any other time ready to establish their state and effectively lead it, in a press release published Wednesday following a meeting between the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, and the French President, Nicolas Sarkozy, in Paris.
