Husseini says Netanyahu's intentions are clear and not good

Faisel Husseini, the official in charge of the Jerusalem dossier in the Palestinian government, confirmed yesterday that the Israeli elections are an Israeli internal affair and that the Palestinian government will not interfere in them in spite of their effect on the Palestinian issue.

He added that setting up the Israeli elections on May 17 proves that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not want to implement his commitments in the Wye River accord and that Netanyahu aims at the establishment of a new right-wing government to stop the whole peace process and keep the Palestinians from obtaining their legitimate rights.
