RAMALLAH (Xinhua) – Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Ishtaye on Monday said that the negotiations on forming a new Zionist cabinet are at the expense of the Palestinian people and their legitimate rights. An official statement said that Ishtaye made the remarks during a weekly meeting of the Palestinian Authority cabinet held in the West Bank city of Ramallah. “The negotiations to form the cabinet in Israel are based on who builds more settlements, who wants to facilitate more shooting at the Palestinians, and who wants to confiscate more Palestinian land,” Ishtaye said, adding that the Zionist regime is preparing to “declare a war against us led by extremist settlers.”
