Quartet Offered No New Initiative to End Israeli Violations

RAMALLAH, December 17, 2015 (WAFA) – Secretary General of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Saeb Erekat Thursday said the International Quartet has not come up with any initiative to stop Israeli violations against Palestinians during the meeting with the Palestinian leadership on Wednesday.

Erekat told the Voice of Palestine that the Quartet has pledged to fulfill its obligations towards the Palestinians, including the establishment of a Palestinian state on the 1967 borders.

He said the Palestinian leadership demanded the Quartet to put an end to Israeli army practices against Palestinians; including daily extrajudicial killings, land confiscation, home demolitions and checkpoints across the West Bank.

“It is about time to put Israel, which chose security measures as a tool to punish our people, on trial for its crimes,” said Erekat.
