Palestinian leader threatens to end Oslo Accords with Israel, Again

The PA autocrat Abbas basically imposed self-irrelevance this past July by proclaiming how the Palestinian leadership decided to “halt work related to the agreements signed with the Israeli side;” Abbas is now repeating the ‘threat’ once again, should Netanyahu implement his promise to extend Israeli sovereignty into sections of Judea and Samaria.

All agreements signed between the Palestinians and Israel will end if Israel expands its sovereignty to the Jordan Valley and the Northern Dead Sea, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas warned on Tuesday.

Last July, Abbas announced that the Palestinian leadership has decided to “halt work related to the agreements signed with the Israeli side.”

The PA later announced that a special committee has been set up to study mechanisms for implementing the decision. However, it remains unclear whether the committee has made any decision in this regard.

Abbas said that the Palestinians “have the right to defend our rights and achieve our goals with available means, notwithstanding the results.”

Netanyahu’s decisions, Abbas added, “contradict the resolutions of international legitimacy and law.”
