RAMALLAH, August 15, 2011 (WAFA) - Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for President Mahmoud Abbas, condemned on Monday the Israeli decision to build hundreds of housing units in ‘Ariel’ settlement, southwest of Nablus in the northern West Bank.
He told WAFA that this is an Israeli measure to destroy any left efforts to revive the peace process; however, such measures make us more persistent to go to the United Nations (UN) to seek recognition of a Palestinian state in order to stop these Israeli practices.
