Mottaki: Washington peace talks are "puppet show, illegal
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Kashan, Isfahan Prov., Sept 3, IRNA -- Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said here on Friday that the compromise talks held in Washington on Thursday on Palestine issue are “a puppet show and illegal.”
Speaking to large groups of the locals on the World Qods Day, Mottaki said the peace talks held in Washington on Thursday were a show gesture to garner more votes in the upcoming elections.
He said the first legal problem with the talks is that tenure of some of the negotiation parties is over.
“On what ground (Palestine Authority leader) Mr. Mahmoud Abbas took part in the compromise talks as representative of the Palestinian nation, while his tenure has come to an end? The talks are unacceptable as Palestinian people and majority of Palestinian groups have explicitly pointed to,” said Mottaki.
The only way for freedom of Palestinians is resistance today, added the minister.
