Palestinian President & Israeli ministers discuss the peace process

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas held talks with 2 Israeli Ministers to discuss the peace process between both sides in the West Bank city of Ramallah, as reported by the state-run WAFA news agency.

All through the meeting on Sunday with Israeli Minister of Health Nitzan Horowitz and Minister of Regional Cooperation Issawi Frej, Abbas said that it is important to end the Israeli occupation and achieve just and comprehensive peace in the region, through the implementation of international resolutions.

Abbas stressed the necessity of stopping Israeli settlement, ending raids on Palestinian towns and villages, and ceasing homes demolition and displacement of the Palestinians in East Jerusalem.

Both the Israeli Ministers explained to Abbas their position, which supports the two-state solution and the joint cooperation to build confidence between the two sides.
Meetings between Abbas and Israeli ministers and officials have been taking place over the past three months as the bilateral direct peace negotiations had been stalled since March 2014.

The US-sponsored talks between Israel and the Palestinians stopped in 2014 following disagreements on Israeli settlement and the recognition of establishing a Palestinian state on the 1967 border.

Israel occupied the West Bank and East Jerusalem, which are claimed by the Palestinians, in the 1967 Middle East war and has controlled them ever since.
